Other Stuff and Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday to Paul—he’s 27 today! Since January, I haven’t been very good about updating this blog because life has just gotten too busy.
  • We’ve been trying to plan our wedding—much thanks to our moms who have been taking care of most of the details—which is now only a month and a half away (exciting!).
  • I did an art show in February that went very well and have been trying to build my inventory back up.
  • I made a bunch of beaded flowers for our friends wedding (pitcher plants and trilliums were requested).
  • I have been writing a grant (with Drs. MSP and MSW) to get funding for a new fish related project and trying to get together data for a presentation (with Drs. MSP and WTS) at the ASIH meeting in July.
  • Paul has been trying to finish up his thesis work in preparation for a new job starting in August.
  • Paul went on a week long research cruise to collect larval amberjack at the beginning of June
  • AND we bought a fixer-upper boat that takes up any spare time we have left.

*** I've also started another site that is only for my beadwork called "Silver Perch Designs".***
