I can't believe it's been 40 +1 years since graduation - What have I been up to since I graduated? Well, the bullet points are thus. Graduated. Snuck away to commercial art school with my Mr., Tom. We married and I became a mom of 2 all before I could unravel what I wanted to do with my one beautiful life. But, as it turns out, I was already doing it! In all, we had three children (now we have five grands:) and I say proudly ~ being a mom has been one of the very best parts of this girl's life! I taught preschool for years then I rolled right into homeschooling my own (way before the pandemic:). We traveled (essentially the world) for education, business, and pleasure. I've been every sort of "Girl Friday" when it comes to our business - Tom DiPace Sports Photography - and I have been fondly called a human light stand by some very famous peeps (it's officially a thing - you should see me in action) and I really love working with Tom - he has the most amazing career - and I believe our working together has brought us even closer as a couple. A few years ago, for fun and for passion, Andrea Lambrakis and I started a little side hustle called ~ Salt Water Art Studio. The pandemic has not been the best time to grow our young niche business but we are still teaching art/pottery classes in spite of it all and having the very best time doing it! O, and yeah, this November Tom and I celebrate 40 years of marriage ~ 44 years together. This is all just nutty. How did 40 + years of my life fly by? Just. Like. That. (I am snapping my fingers here!) Looking forward to our 1980 AHS celebration coming up this October!
