What a surprise to find a lovely package all the way from Finland in my mailbox! It was packaged so pretty it was a shame to open it. Thank you Ninni, my thoughtful Finnish friend, You made my day!

Summer visitors
It was so nice to see you. Please come again when the house is finished, so we can entertain you properly. Though it was probably pretty entertaining watching us run around like sweating headless chickens.
Charity & her kids...
Charity, I will be waiting for the link to that new blog of yours;) xoxo

A beautiful morning
The first things I seen when I woke up this morning.

The office
I can't believe it is almost finished! It is so cool to see our visions come to life. Move-in date is scheduled for the beginning of next week (ok, probably not going to happen, but a girl can dream).

Cole
Amidst picking out countertops & wallpaper disasters there are continuous thoughts of Cole. A sweet little boy that is standing so close to the gates of heaven. I am nearly consumed with prayer knowing that he is undergoing a critical surgery to ease his pain at this very moment. This makes it hard to concentrate (or even care) about such temporary things as constructing a home here on earth. Our time here is just a little speck compared to eternity.

Please PRAY. If so compelled, visit Cole's CaringBridge Site and offer words of encouragment to his grieving family as they travel this rough road.

The Ceremony

Violet in Biscotti
See I do (occasionally) wear other brands on Violet.
Here she is all dressed up in the costumey goodness known as Biscotti. Love it.
The Cobblestone Collection is designed & out the door! I have spent more time on this collection than on any other. Not only beautiful, a good portion will also be organic or eco-friendly.

Little tiny harvest
Our lettuce made it to a grand quarter inch high. Landon enjoyed all one bite of the salad. I am confident that our thumbs will get greener and we will get a few more inches next year.

Lady in waiting
Well not really, but that is the phrase that comes to mind when I look at this photo. The calm before the storm. Ashely ready and waiting for the ceremony to start.
