The CoffeeShop Blog

It has been such a busy summer over here at the CoffeeShop house. Kids have been busy at different camps and when they are home we are together enjoying our summer. 

Luke is going to be a senior in high school this year, so this summer I am doing my best to be in the moment as much as I can. It is so difficult to slow down my busy brain. I love spending time with him, but my baby bird is starting to fly farther from our nest each day. I know my main job is to prepare both my sons to be able to leave our family home and strike out on their own. But sometimes when I think about my future quiet home without the boy noise and mess and fights and laughter and energy and love it makes me a little sad. 

I don’t think I really understood what “bittersweet” meant until I had children. 

Enough wallowing in my self-awareness of time flying by too quickly. How is your summer going? I hope you are having a wonderful time with your friends and family.

Today I wanted to share a really nice set of vintage textures that look gorgeous on their own as papers or layered over images. I hope to post more next week and catch you up on what has been going on this summer. And of course to post more amazing freebies!
