Dining Room Addition

Well, after surfing around online, and staring at my dining room decor for a few days, I decided to go for it and get the vinyl decal for the wall.... Jacob helped me put it up yesterday, and I think it looks pretty good!

We also got one for the bedroom (one of my favorite quotes from Maya Angelou)... I felt like I needed something on the wall above our bed, but i don't like the idea of anything heavy hanging over my head while I'm asleep.  i figured vinyl wall art was a little less crack-my-skull-open-scary.  We haven't put it up yet, but you can bet there will be photos of that as well. =)

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." 

- Mahatma Gandhi

I try to to live my life by this mantra... not always successful, but it definitely has had an impact on my life.  Seems kind of appropriate that it would resonate with me so much, taken into consideration my chosen employment path (case manager for a social service organization that works with homeless/at-risk youth).

This quote was one of the choices for my class's "motto" my senior year in high school... I was pretty disappointed when it lost for this Dr. Seuss (!!) quote... but, life moves on. lol
