Get Naked From Yay Prints



I love quotes and sayings in my house.  I love how they show my personality through a few words.  This week I added to my collection using one of Courtney's photos from YAY Prints.  I also had a chance to interview her.  I was able to learn where she got the idea for her new collection and why she started her business.

1. What made you want to start YAY Prints?

Last year I started working from home. I spend a lot of time on the computer answering emails and phone calls. Designing prints was my way to blow off some steam. I had so many ideas that I decided to open YAY prints etsy.

2. Why did you go for the digital prints instead of mailing them? 

There are a lot of benefits for going digital. First! It's a lot cheaper to go and print it yourself vs. buying the print and having it shipped to you. My customer's can worry less about the package being damaged and waiting for the package, digital is delivered to you instantly! PLUS my customer's can print it as many times as they want and give it to others for gifts, or use it as a phone background, or computer background.


3. How do you choose what to make the prints of? (they seem all very positive, is that a theme)

The inspiration from my prints come from my daughter! It's important to me that she sees the beauty this world has to offer and that she recognizes the good. A lot of my prints are so she can see and read the prints in our home.

8 Things Couples Should Do Every Day to Keep a Happy Marriage- From a couple married 46 years




As a kid I thought about who I was going to marry and what married life would be like.  But as I got older I realized, serious relationships can be a lot of work (but of course is well worth it).  I decided to interview a couple who has been married for 46 years to get their advice on what they think all couples should do every day to keep their marriage positive and happy.  It has helped me focus more on my marriage and hopefully can help you strengthen yours too.

What Does Marriage Mean To You?

Linda said, “Marriage is loving and living with your best friend.  Marriage is having the same goals and working toward them.  Marriage is wanting the best for the other person and helping him/her to be that person.  Marriage is being partners in everything, not one having control over the other one.  Marriage is treating each other with respect.  Marriage is being totally devoted to their spouse.”

Ray said, “Marriage is the sweetest experience that life can offer.”

What Advice Do You Have for Couples to Have A Happy Marriage?

  1. Always be willing to compromise. And that usually means both spouses going more than half way.
  2. Talk things over so each spouse knows what the other one is thinking or feeling.  Never raise your voice unless the house is on fire!
  3. Set goals together.
  4. Be sensitive to the other one’s feelings.
  5. Always kiss each other goodnight.
  6. Never go to bed angry.
  7. Both partners help with the children and the house.
  8. Never criticize the other one in public.  Only praise their good qualities.
These are all simple things we can do every day that can make a big difference on our relationship.

I would love to hear from you

8 Ways to Include Dad During Pregnancy


During my pregnancy I was able to have many once in a life time experiences (at least for now).  I was able to feel my baby move all the time, take care of him even though he wasn't born, go the doctors appointments, feel my body change daily and many more.  Throughout my pregnancy I always wanted to share these experiences with the dad, my husband.  So here is a list of 8 things I did to include my husband during our pregnancy:
