Painting Gray: Little Bird

We have a bedroom upstairs that we painted in a gorgeous gray. Enticed by Rapunzel's wall paintings in Tangled, I was dying to have my own space to paint at whim. We chose this chic gray, and bought a gallon of bright white paint. A castle, pirate ship setting sail, dragon and more are just itching to be painted.

First, though, I started with a bird.

To Do:

Sometimes I feel swallowed up by my list of perceived obligations that I forget what I really should be doing...

Homemade Applesauce

Fresh applesauce always on hand? Yes please! All you need is water, sugar, a giant pot, and a barrel of apples :) This is even more delightfully delicious than the little Mott's cups.

Rain

Let it rain.

Tedious Testing

Ah, the week of standardized tests.

And finals.

And studying for bar exams (I'm so sorry, Heather).

Book Page Wall

Stories are magical--the way they wrap themselves around you and whisk you to a different place. They take you on unbelievable adventures and help to shed light into the dark places of your heart--the part of you you've forgotten about or hidden away. They remind you of hopes, dreams and love. They whisper to you of intrigue and mystery of trials and triumphs and of youth. 

For Jk and I, stories sing to our hearts and will always be found in our home. Stories remind of us how we made it this far, of the love we share, and of what we live and fight for. They fill every room and hold the very beams of our house together. The physical representation of all of these stories can be found in none other than our library... where the pages of the stories most dear to us hang upon our wall.

Fajitas

Fajitas are an easy, fresh Mexican favorite of ours. All you need is an episode of Burn Notice to go along with it!
