Everybody has a favorite adhesive, right? I made my own set of samples for some acrylic paints to use as a quick reference, but they’ve just been a disorganized mess. So I laminated them and added magnetic tape. Boom. Organized chaos.
Living
Tall Tree

Whose idea was it to get a giant tree? Mine. Whose palms sweat when on ladders? Mine.
I can’t help it. I love Christmas. I love Christmas trees. I love Christmas decorations.

Texas Thanksgiving

God has been so good to us and so has Texas. Happy Thanksgiving.
Willie Nelson

November is the time of year we reflect on what we are thankful for, and I am so thankful that this November we went to see Willie Nelson sing at Billy Bobs. When the tickets came up for sale, we grabbed them plus a couple extra as a way to thank my parents for housing us in the interim of our Minnesota house being sold and our Texas home being built. It was also a good way to convince them to visit as they are huge fans. Thanks to them I was raised with blue eyes have crying in the rain since the red headed stranger first sang that tune. It was so incredible to hear a legend live it brought my mom to tears.
Texas BBQ

While living in Minnesota I was just this side of being a vegetarian. Not for any reason other than I could simply take or leave meat. Fast forward to living in Texas and I completely understand carnivorism. We have found quite a few great little BBQ places within a short drive of our home, but Hard Eight is the closest and it is what sold our son on the idea of moving to Texas.
