| So Jason and I had a meeting today with my cousin Jacob. He does cabinetry and is helping us with the kitchen remodel. Jason and I both left the meeting feeling very stressed about the whole thing...the drama of remodeling starts again! Anywho...our schedules are already packed this weekend...and the Lord knows I hate weekends like that....but we gotta get it done. Please pray for Jason and I...that things will go smoothly and that we won't bicker too much with all this new stress in our lives...
Here's my sis (we call her "Red"...and no...we're not twins!!) |

| Hey guys.....sorry it's been so long.....I have been really busy this last month....my sister has been on bed rest for her pregnancy for the last 2 months...she's got a 3 year old...who's 110% boy and has a special needs 12 year old....so I have been trying to help her out on my days off...and haven't left much time for myself. ....
Jamie (my sis) is doing much better and the doctor said she can go off of bed rest...she just had her check up Monday...were going to have another nephew!!!! YEA! He also is going to be named Jason ....(my sister's husband is also a Jason) so family gatherings should be interesting...but we're very excited to meet him.
Anyway,
I sent out my application for Graduate School this week....I am excited to get into school again and just see where God takes me....Jason and I are also starting on another remodeling project this weekend...our hideous kitchen...I am excited to be doing something creative again....Other than that...I am not sure what else is new....I hope all of you are doing well.....Take Care!! |

So I've been applying to graduate school...which is really scary to me...I am have been so apprehensive about major life decisions that in the past...I just haven't made them......so now...here I am at a pivotal point in my education...and of course...I can't make up my mind...I am so afraid of making the "WRONG" decision..that I don't make one at all...but the Lord is really leading me to just step out in faith and in the words of Nike..."Just do it!" ...so that's what I am doing...I am applying to the University of St. Thomas for a Masters in Art History (with hopes to teach) and the University of Minnesota (Masters of Architecture and Masters of Science in Architecture) Let's see where God opens the doors!

| Well, here goes nothing.....
I figured it was time for me to have a blog just like everybody else in the 21st century (who's my age or younger of course) I don't think my parents even know what a blog is...or even my sister for that matter (love you "Red"!) I figured that I enjoyed reading and keeping up on everybody else's business...they might wanna hear about mine too.... so here goes...
Jason and I have been back home for almost a year...and man...has it flown by...I still dream about Italy quite often, and wonder sometimes about why I wanted to move home so badly. Other days I am able to spend time with one or several of my nieces and nephews (I have 11 and counting! Yikes!) and I am reminded of why my heart was never really satisfied living away...We just celebrated my oldest nephews 18th birthday this past weekend. I can't believe that he's a man....I just can't believe it....but it just reminds me how time flies and how truly important it is to be a good example to them and minister to them with love...We gave him the book "The Case for Faith"...He is so smart...and has so many challenging questions for Jason and I........I hope he reads it.
