Update...

I decided it was time for another update, so here I am. We’re doing great! We’ve been really busy between both of us working and me going to school, and everything else we are doing, but I can tell we’re doing what we’re supposed to be doing because everything is falling into place and we’re able to do everything we need to. School has been going pretty good. It hasn’t gotten to hectic as of yet but I’m sure that day will come the closer we get to the middle/end of semester. I do have to say that I’m learning a TON in the classes I have. I was thinking about how fun it would be to start posting pictures of the projects I’m working on. There is also a lot of cool quotes/info my teachers tell us that I think would be helpful to everyone, so I decided if something really stuck out to me I would share it with all of you! It’s my goal to start posting a LOT more often than I have been recently so that my blog isn’t boring (my sister told me it was once, gotta love sisters, they’re always so completely honest with you!) In my modern furnishings class we’re learning about the arts and crafts movement and William Morris, one of the architects during this time, said this amazing quote that I’ve kind of taken to heart. He said “Do not have anything in your house that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful” I just think that is such a useful piece of advice to remember, and wanted to share it with everyone. Anyways, that’s our update for now!

You're really amazing! I think that quote is really great. I just have too much stuff that I think will be useful to "someone" "someday"!

Kirstin - So every once in a while I pop over here and you say "I am going to be better about posting. . ." Where are the posts. BTW I put a link to your blog on mine, hope you don't mind. It's so much easier than going back to the one comment you made and going from there.

Hey, I'm checking blogs today and it looks like it's time for a new post! (once a month seems like the standard, but there's not one for February....)
