What Are You Thankful For?

Good Afternoon!

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and I am looking back over this year and thinking about all I have to be thankful for.

This year has been filled with so many challenges and victories.

Earlier in 2012 my dad was put in the hospital and it was scary.  At one point we almost lost him but I am so grateful that he is doing much better.  Later in the summer my Dad & Mom, and my sister came to visit.  Happy for another year with them.

 And those lovely kids who give me the drive to do what I do.

 

 Then we got this little guy..an answer to prayer for my girl.

 (That's a story in itself)

Thankful for my extremely hot, husband!  

Who works so hard for our family.  Thankful for new work opportunities that came his way.  He has been such a big supporter of my dreams as well.

Which leads me to...

This year marked the official beginning of my business. 

Thankful for Sara who created my logo and just "got me" when we met.

She also cleaned up my site since I am technically challenged : )

For the new people I have met..

Project Ladybug

Eric Stromer and fellow Canadian Bloggers (Lynne Knowlton)

Emily Henderson (HGTV)

 

Also, for all my clients thus far!  Thank you for your trust in me for your homes and commercial spaces.  Looking forward to new clients in the coming year : )

Most of all I want to thank God (and no this is not like an AMA speech) for truly all He has walked with me through.  He gets my ultimate Thanks.

Hope your Thanksgiving is full of looking at the true joys of life.  God bless!

Not The Reveal But Pretty Close..

Good Morning!

On my last blog post  I was saying how my husband said one of my favorite things.  We picked up some goodies..

I had some people guess and say it could be a shelf we were making..

This has been on my list for at least 2yrs.

All I can say is Thank God for a man who is handy.

He cranked these out in a couple hours..and this is what we were up to : )

 We are making cornices for my laundry room..

(Yes, I still have to scrape the windows.  Don't pay that any mind..haha)

 breakfast nook

 and kitchen

I cleverly cropped out the mess in my kitchen. LOL

The result of being busy but I am not complaining : )

Here is what they look like from the back end.

My husband did them his way but here are great directions from the DIY Network .

I am not finished.  I have to wrap them yet but a huge step forward : )

BTW..

I am very excited to be working on a logo and branding for Modern Earth Design.  I have been working with the amazing Sara Axelson, who is a guru in this area.  I can't wait to show everyone when completed.

Have a wonderful weekend : )
