To say that we are having a BLAST would be an understatement. We are in high-Heaven!!!!!! Courtney is a girl after my own heart and our husbands are patient (or have been thus far)... here are a few photos of the journey:
We've been up since 6am, the boys are making scrambled eggs and toast (without a toaster) and we are chomping at the bit to get out in those fields. We covered about 1/100th of what there is to see... we really need to stay all week! We love our new friends and can't wait for our next adventure together!!!

























Y'all are too much! I LOVE ALL THE PICTURES... they tell such a story. No captions needed, especially the one of Chance following the RV employee into the building! I'm smiling really big now... I'm so glad Courtney & JJ are cool and normal and that y'all are having so much fun! Can't wait to see today's "FINDS". Hugs to you in TX!!!

Hi Erika! My name is Lindsey Lee. I know we haven't been formally introduced, but I am pretty sure that I've seen you. My husband is Jeremy Lee, one of Bayn's good friends. And Jeremy knows your sister and thinks your nieces are the cutest little girls!
Anyway, I have enjoyed looking at your blog and all your design pictures!

Hey Erika-not about this post, but a comment you made on Abby's blog about your job and "does it really matter" and I have to say YES! Darby got me on your blog, courtney's blog..all your great design blogs and it has made me feel inferior. I feel all I know is medicine-science and math. I guess the lesson here is for us to glorify God with what he gave us individually and not worry about where we're "lacking." I always feel at a loss to design-especially my house, but want it to be beautiful and be a lovely place for other people to come. So by you providing great surroundings you encourage others to open their homes, minister, and show hospitality. So thanks for inspiration, maybe you can inspire my house next time you're in Dothan!
