one project down, so many to go…
i’ve got so many projects either floating around up there, or in various stages of being started or in progress… and it’s driving me crazy! mostly because i don’t often get a chunk of time to work on any one thing, and when some time does come along, i find myself jumping from one thing to another in a frenzied effort to get it all done. RIGHT THEN. so yeah, i’ve been driving myself a little batty with it all.
but today! both mikey and allie are in preschool, and i signed lauren up for something called “mom’s day out” at their preschool, which is during the same three hours that allie is in school. which means, i had a glorious morning all to myself today! i also fought the urge to go straight back to bed once i got home, too. 
instead, i used the time to focus on ONE project and see it to completion. well, almost. i ordered the prints to be mailed to me and already have the frame, so once they get here, then i can say it’s officially completed.
can you tell what it says? i’m planning to hang it up in our front hallway area. it’s a surprise for phil, too.
thankfully, our last name is only four letters long!

beautiful, esp the rose! did you take these pictures? what a pretty way to spell your last name! btw, it’s so awesome that you got to spend few hours by yourself. i’m so jealous!

Cool! I did that with our last name…just googled until I found pictures the right shapes. Took forever. I think I might put it on my blog. 🙂

@hongfamilia – thank you! i took the pictures about a month ago when m and a were in vbs and phil stayed home with l. took me FOREVER to find just the four letters, and surprisingly (to me at least!), the ‘s’ was the hardest of all! i assumed there would be more curvy things in nature instead of straighter lines. was about to give up til that rose came to my attention!

@MominIreland – ah, now i see that your way would have saved me three hours of walking! i’d love to see what you came up with!

Too creative, Michelle! And, awesome pics! You have a gift for photography and seeing art in nature. How fun to get some mom alone time too! I bet it felt weird…always does for me.
