"In the end, we'll all become stories." - Margaret Atwood This year has been quite a crazy one. I've had many ups and downs, but I wouldn't have had it any other way! I've gotten to meet some people that I just know will be in my life for a long, long time. Some will even turn into stories that I'll be telling for years. I love everyone of y'all so much! šŸ«¶šŸ»šŸ«¶šŸ» 1 Corinthians 16:14

Listen, I know we’re crazy. Who the hell turns their whole house into a Harry Potter experience every year? Who thinks of this shit? Me. I do. Halloween is some of my fondest childhood memories and my goal when I started this was to make kids smile. This year, we had over 800 kids and parents laughing, smiling, gawking, screaming and rejoicing at my doorstep. It was an amazing experience to watch them all experience my creation. This year, the side yard was turned into the Forbidden Forrest, the garage was Honeydukes, the Hogwarts Express and Snape’s potion class fogged up the front porch. It takes a village of nerds to run a production like this so I couldn’t have done it without the help of @apetty6985 @kimberlypetty64 @third_block @katherine_grace_godwin @margaretshaul @mattroylive @tommyguitar @moseleyofficial and of course @bensonkennedylynn and @noahneedleman When I’m 80, I’ll look back at those weekends in the garage, building sets with Noah while watching Benson crawl around with pots and pans, and eating dirt in the front yard…. And I’ll remember a life well lived. I’ll smile. It was a family affair and I love them so much for always making my dreams come true. Videos to come.

- 3558 09/19/25 Pencil, Marker, Adobe InDesign Please visit: 3558.cargo.site to view the full poster. If you've been tagged, there's a little something extra in there for you too. Love you guys šŸ¤ŸšŸ˜‹ --- Over the course of the last few weeks, I’ve struggled. Presented with the task of collecting data, I set off content to track something I love: music. I decided to track the people embedded within each song, the people I think of when I listen to music. But as I tracked this data, I was forced to confront each track, and with it the idea of collection. It was more than just my music. Pictures, objects, clips, memories; the people I do and don’t talk to anymore, all these things I’ve kept and never really let go. And then, I came across this quote. ā€œThe difference between a collection and a hoard is the value someone else can find in it.ā€ 3558 is a conscious decision to let go. Each track, memory, chapter of my life is confronted and given back to the people who gave them to me in the first place. The hoard is allowed to become collection once more. --- @lyinzie @frozone1617 @sarahandbooksco @codecannibal @_gnashing_of_teeth_ @johnspaintings @aly.cart @wonderland.cafe.idols @jayden.gaddes @oriannancontreras @cadence.mckinley @chasethedream42 @nathanzferguson @leo_aka_plombo @alviselsey @third_block @ellasawyer.sg @panedwindowsart @cassian_barlow @jtorymatthews @i.e.stargore @dr.pepperluv._ @ian.the.wise @zomuck @xx.folieadeux.xx @_pineoftheapple

EP RELEASED ā€¼ļøAs a longtime songwriter for myself & others, the path toward finding my OWN ā€œbrandā€ and ā€œvoiceā€ was somewhat foreign to me. This project changed all of that… harnessing the best of what I’ve learned to FINALLY ARRIVE✨ Many thanks are in order… first and foremost to my long time friend and producer, @noahneedleman šŸŽ¶ truly lucky to have such a talent and joy in my life, as both a champion and creative. I would be remiss to not also mention the ways in which this EP was enhanced by the creativity, vision, and talent of so many other wonderful people, in so many different facets… @bryandimaio @rollmottle @rylandsteen @madeleine.wiley @joshwritessongs @third_block @kaseycanzanophotography @codyduncum šŸŽøšŸŽµšŸŽ¤šŸ“øšŸŽ„ thank you, THANK YOU✨ Hope you enjoy šŸ™

WELCOME TO HOGWARTS! Halloween in my neighborhood brings me so much joy. Creating the Harry Potter experience every year is something I always look forward to building! We made a few upgrades this year! Including creating the Hogwarts Express! Voldemort also joined us my scaring the big kids on the front porch. Huge thanks to my neighbor family for stepping in to help once Benson arrived. I couldn’t have done it without them! Thank you @noahneedleman for always supporting my crazy ideas and dreams even when we have a 3.5 week old baby to take care on top of it all. šŸ’• The videos are low quality but I did my best in the dark, with the rain all while holding baby B. Lol

Thank you for listening to my first single as Lizzy Paris. It truly means the world to me. When I was a little girl, I used to dream about having my voice heard. Now it’s happening every day. Stream DLMBLT on @spotify now 🄳 New music that I’m insanely excited about is coming soon šŸ˜®ā€šŸ’Øā™„ļøšŸ„‚šŸŒ¹šŸ˜‰ #lizzyparis #jazzmusic #soulsinger #jamestaylorcover #newmusiccomingsoon #spotifyartist #spotify #spotifymusic #spotifynumbers #150kstreams #jazzpiano #jazzcafĆ© #jazzfusion #soulsingers

God’s timing is truly impeccable. And to think I wasn’t even going to release this record at all. I had no expectations for this drop and now here we are, 1,700 playlist adds, my first Spotify editorial playlist add, almost 40,000 monthly listeners and my first 100k+ streams 🄲 I haven’t dropped a song in over 4 years so this feels damn good to see these type of numbers and be reassured by Spirit in this way. To all the mama’s out there, DON’T EVER give up on your dreams. The babies want and need to see you succeed. I’m so excited to release my next single šŸ‘€šŸ„‚ it’s really only up. Y’all think we can hit 1 million on the next drop?!ā˜ŗļøšŸŒø #motherhood #mamasgetitdone #mamamusician
