George Bernard Shaw (Original photography by Sheri & Bill) “We don’t stop playing because we get old; we get old because we stop playing” – George Bernard Shaw   Folks, we’re not talking about age, but attitude!  Play keeps us curious, engaged, and lighthearted.

"Involve me and I learn" - Benjamin Franklin (Original photography by Sheri & Bill) “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” (Benjamin Franklin) Tactile games like puzzles pull us in, teaching us through hands-on experience and making the lessons stick far better than a lecture ever could…or perhaps they demonstrate the art of playful frustration?  From the Rubik’s Cube that taunts you with its colorful chaos, to the peg game that seems sim

Today I will be happier than a bird with a french fry. (Original photography by Sheri & Bill) "Today I will be happier than a bird with a French fry.” And that’s pretty happy! Happiness is a conscious choice that positively impacts our lives. Bill:  I took this shot one early summer evening on Ocean City, NJ. Boardwalk.

If Winter Comes, Can Spring Be Far Behind - Sheri & Bill (Original photography by Sheri & Bill) If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?"   ( Percy Bysshe Shelley) For us, it’s “WHEN" winter comes. We both lived in cold (very cold!) northern snow country in earlier years, so we remember what a “real winter” feels like. We happily concede that winter here in Atlanta is considered mild, but somehow that doesn’t make it any warmer. As a matter of fact, winter cold still evokes

FOCUS - Sheri & Bill (original photography by Sheri & Bill) “Focus on Goals”...whether it’s New Year’s Day or the middle of summer, it’s always a good time to set goals and make plans, as they stimulate hope for the future.

Color Me Happy - Original photography by Sheri & Bill “Color me happy” ….” (Sheri & Bill) Photographers and artists know the superpower of color—it’s like emotional Wi-Fi, influencing our thoughts, moods, and even what we order for dessert. Seriously, cherry or blueberry pie? Decisions, decisions! How do you use color in your life? Are you painting your walls in calming blues, or are you one of those bold types rocking bright orange accent walls? Do you drive a sleek red spor

It's always time to connect! Sheri & Bill (Original photography by Sheri & Bill)  It’s Always Time To Connect (Sheri & Bill) Human connection, when done properly, is an addictive stimulant and stress reliever. From the moment of birth, we demand the presence of a caregiver—proof that our brains are wired for survival and social connection is primal.
