I'm almost 10 days overdue for delivery but the project we finished last night was pushing 3 years overdue. We finally unpacked our last box from Charlotte which was full of prints and pictures to be framed and hung. Paul did an excellent job completing the task while I sat in a chair eating spicy wasabi peas and seaweed snacks.
The Chinese characters read "familes are forever" so that is what we call the arrangement on this wall. Also included is the Proclamation on the Family and both group and individual shots. I am amazed how much the kids have enjoyed gazing over all the pictures and kind of wish I had the drive to complete this earlier. But I am glad we got this project done and now hope to finish moving in completely. I suppose if it were possible for me to go overdue a couple more weeks we may even make some progress on our landscaping as well.
On a side note I have been out and about all day yard-saling, strolling Red Butte Garden with the kids, shopping, hiking, and then to Red Iguana. Still no action but I must be pretty big because I attracted quite a few double takes while out in public. Also, my sister advised me to put a waterproof pad on my bed in case my water broke. I wish I took her advice because when I got back from shopping I discovered Maryanna had dumped a bucket of water on my bed.
The wall looks beautiful. I can't wait to see it in person some day. Are the pictures your kids?

ReplyDeleteThe pictures are just of our little family (including our dog). I do have plans however to make a family history wall. With wedding pictures and family pictures from both sides. That will take a few more years as we just started collecting pictures and are still trying to fill in some gaps on Paul's side. I loved this post on Designmom.com about family history and about family trees. I actually ordered the fan chart but it will take a few years to fill it all in as we are only 4 generations back on Paul's side. It kind of achors the arrangement so our family history wall may not be up for a few years.
One good thing about being overdue is that you are getting so many great projects done!
