Back to School!
It's that time of year again... another Summer is almost over and the kids are going back-to-school. Are the kids excited? Mine are! They love seeing their friends every day. I'm not sure how much they care about the school part... Are the parents excited? Depends on who you ask... I love the lazy mornings of Summer not having to rush out of the house every day.

Why Not Take A Chance on Faith and other Lessons by Jim Carrey
"My soul is not contained within the limits of my body, my body is contained within the limitlessness of my soul."
These are the words by Jim Carrey that I keep repeating in my head.

I was even more excited when she added in zinc so it works as sun protection as well.

I was used to the overwhelming and fast pace of university. Deadlines. Events. Working tirelessly into the evening... every day. I started LanaBetty to challenge myself, to learn new skills, and ultimately to make beautiful jewelry for others to feel good about themselves too.
