So, my dad has taken on another hobby...welding. Him and mom surprised me at Christmas with this piece to hang above my bed. I picked one out in a store and really wanted it, but little did I know he would learn how to make it himself. I am so pleased with how it turned out. He has already started his second project which is a huge bridge for their house. He wants it for the wedding, so I think it will be a great place to take pictures. I still need to take a picture of the bridge, too.

I owe a big thanks to both our parents (and Jessie) for helping us move all three rooms of furniture. I am so grateful we have family that lives so close! We are getting everything ready!
