Quotables

“You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don’t try to forget the mistakes, but you don’t dwell on it. You don’t let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.”

||Johnny Cash||

Krochet Kids Acceptance Speech

My friends over at Krochet Kids recently won $500,000 from Chase thanks to you and all of our friends getting the word out and voting.  The awards were aired on NBC and my roommate and I screamed SO LOUD when Krochet Kids was called to accept the award.  I think we scared our neighbors.  Oops!  Their acceptance speech was cut a little short, so here’s their full message for us all to hear.

Krochet Kids, I love you guys and I am so proud of the work you’re doing.

And of course, you can all learn more about Krochet Kids by clicking here.

One Last Christmas Card

This past May my Great Uncle Larry passed away.  The previous Easter he had fallen and hit his head badly during family dinner and never really recovered from the brain damage.

For many years Uncle Larry would hand-paint Christmas cards for all of our family and closest friends. He was incredibly talented at watercoloring and loved to paint. This year while cleaning through Uncle Larry’s art supplies, my Great Aunt Chris found a sketch he had done. We don’t know what the sketch was for, or when it was done, but Aunt Chris decided to use it for a photo Christmas card. It came out beautifully and brought some tears on Christmas Eve. We sure miss him.
