Spring!

Spring break is around the corner and I am so glad!  That means that this semester is nearly over and I am closer to being finished with my Masters!  Seth has been working hard and helping out Mark and Mia on renovating their new house.  It is going to look great!  I have just been asked to help a group of artists with a mural in the River Market, so I am very excited about that new adventure!  I'll keep you updated on the progress of Mark and Mia's house and the mural in Little Rock, until then, enjoy all of the beautiful flowers that are finally coming out!  

Lately...

So we've been quite busy lately...school, work and then we've been working on some side projects on the weekend as well.  Seth made an amazing (and huge) dog house for Roo and I proceeded to paint it the color of macaroni and cheese!  Roo seems to enjoy it though!

Another weekend project that is going on is a lamp that I am working on.  Mawmaw and Pawpaw let me have a couple of Aspen trees from Colorado, and I am in the process of turning one of them into a lamp.....I still have a ways to go, but I'll get there eventually! 

I am also preparing for a show at a cute little restaurant right up the street from my house called Darlin's.  Seth is in the process of helping my make some frames for some photography for that show...I have such a great husband!  

Life Made Simple

So I've been working on this piece of art for a class and have a poem I wrote to go along with it.  There is a story with it...I am living right across the street from the house I lived in when I was little, which brings up lots of memories.  Anyway, I used to play with this little girl who was my neighbor all the time and this is about our fun times.  I'll have a piece of art to post with this later.  I'm not that into writing, so this is all new to me and I'm not even sure if this is all that great, so hopefully I'll get better!  

Life Made Simple

Buttons, balloons and mudpies

Traveling to unexpected places,

A land cracked opened we discovered

Hiding right before our faces.

Inspiring our souls and minds

With just the things around us,

No need for fancy items 

Inside, our inspiration was. 

Our first blog!

Hello everyone!  Seth and I have joined the world of bloggers!  I'm not sure that we know the ins and outs of everything just yet, so hopefully we'll get the hang of this soon!  Until then, everyone have a great week!  We love you all!

Seth and Lainie
