First Peek :)

Ok... so I've decided to NOT put off re-decorating my living room. I'd like some sort of change because I'm that ancy for one. So I'm starting the process of getting things together and making the things that will be used.

Here's the first peek into what will be my living room decor. LOVE the colors..... so excited to see it all together!

And.....

Rick got the most fantastic email today. No- it's not a job, although that would be preffered- but he was informed that the faculty and department chair of his department nominated him for student of the year and he got it!!!! He gets to sit in the front of the graduating class at commencement and he'll be singled out and given this award during the program. We don't know if he gets anything- I'm thinking $5000 would be nice, considering how much we've spent on this freakin school- but alas... it'll probably only be some sort of certificate or trophy. But I am SO PROUD of him. He actually would have gotten it when he graduated with his BA- but he didn't walk at the ceremony, and if you don't walk, you don't get it. But he's walking this time and he gets it and I couldn't be more proud of him. He's worked so hard and done so much that I'm very glad he gets recognized for it. One more thing for the resume right? :)
