I would like to open by saying I’ve had a wonderful month since my thesis research proposal, during which I have not so much as looked at my thesis project. Now that my confession is out of the way, here’s what I have been up to.Mid-February Jason and I welcomed a new dishwasher and oven into our home. My mom… Read more →
Weeeee!!
After a long time without a post I am long past due for an update…so better late than never… December: (Baxter Christmas at the Ranch) The semester wrapped up well and Christmas was great! I spent lots of time making ornaments to put in my Christmas cards. I think I ended up making about 75 snowflakes, which was more ambitious… Read more →

Fall has Arrived!
So glad its finally fall. The mornings have been crisp and with the cooler weather I have been able to get to some much needed yard projects I’ve been putting off (more on that later!). I have also taken out my fall and winter clothes that I have missed so much! I never thought I’d be so excited to see long pants… Read more →

Does she glue with her elbows?!?
Luckily the picture is sort of grainy. It is obvious (I hope) that this was a birthday card. It was created while my creativity and gluing skills were still rather limited. Someone got real mail, nonetheless. 🙂 Read more →
