Orchid Children

This is a great study on Orchid vs Dandaline Children. I highly recommend taking the time to read it. I hope we all try to treat our children like Orchid children but it is good to know there are Dandaline's out there.

Duvet in a Day

MLK weekend called for going back to the roots of life and creating something of my own. I went thrifting and found some great fabric for a total of $6! I wiped this duvet together on Monday and am very pleased at how it turned out!

New Years in L.A.

We spent an amazing New Year's week in L.A. It rained the first day but then it was sunny and wonderful for the rest. We spent New Years at Julie and Thierry's, Julie made this wonderful dinner and then we had amazing french champagne until midnight. I was impressed that I was able to stay up that late given the time change. Julien woke up right after we all started yelling at midnight. He wasn't too eager to get up and celebrate though. We got to hike 3 of the days and we went to Venice Beach and rented some bikes and took some pictures on the beach.

Christmas at Grandma and Grandpa's

We spent Christmas in Big Rapids and someone got a lot of snow time! We had both families there and ate and drank and were merry :-)
