My sister and brother-in-law are coming into Portland, OR tomorrow. This is something we have been planning and talking about for months and months. I can't wait!! I love sisters and love visitors. I'm sure our weekend will go something like this; talking, laughing, eating, hiking, drinking, laughing, talking, laughing, talking, shopping. I'm sure Josh and my bro-in-law will have to escape us at some point, we can't help it! I love me some sister time. 

And on top of that I've got a new studio. Yes, you hear me! I've officially moved into a meeting space/shooting space/desk space. It's been a lot of moving things around, decision making and sample-ordering but it's really shaping up to be quite the gem. I can't wait to show you (virtually) around the place. I'm so very excited for this new venture in business... AND if you see a exceptionally amazing club chair in white or a light color please pass the info along. I need one for my new office :)

AND did I tell you? I'm taking a real bona fide vacation. No work involved whatsoever.... except to work on my tan. We leave later this month for Thailand and Cambodia for three weeks. I'm thrilled but also totally stressed, it's very unlike me to have nothing planned. We leave in about a week and and I have booked our flight and the first 5 nights hotel. Yep. That's it. See... stressed! Guess what's on my schedule for this evening?? Wine, bread, and my decision making cap with my computer and credit card in hand. Wish me luck!

AND of course, Happy Valentine's Day! Doesn't matter if you go all out or do nothing at all, I hope you all know that I love and appreciate you. Make an extra phone call and tell someone that too, k?
