Ella is One!

May 16th was Ella's first birthday and Hope says I no longer have a baby but a toddler now. We dressed her in her new dress and took pictures to be able to remember her at this age. Hope and I made a big bird cake and took all day decorated it with frosting. I think by the end of it there was more frosting than there was cake but both Ella and Austin seemed to enjoy it.

Have a great day!

Today's Thoughts

You never seem to know what you have that is great until what you Had that Was great is now gone! Therefore live in the now and try not to snivel as what you have is better than having Had nothing.

Tomorrow, be on the lookout for Ella's one year old pictures, she just turned a year last week! Also, a new blog is in the works with a whole new creative idea brewing... stay tuned this week to find out what is in store. And... I need to mention I am working on a book titled "Ella Bella and Her Fantastic Wardrobe". The reason I need to mention this is because progress has slowed on the book and I'm hoping that by mentioning it, you all will push me to finish!

Anyways, I hope you all had a great memorial day weekend!

We're Moving to Tennessee!

Well it's been in the talks for a long time now but it is finally here. After many years of contemplating a move out of state, Hope and I have finally decided Kingston, TN is to be our new home. Of course the news comes with great regret but also plentiful elation. We will certainly miss seeing our family and friends as often as we do now, but we will certainly be coming back to visit again and again.

Kingston, TN is just on the outskirts of Knoxville in the easternmost area of the state. With plenty of mountains nearby, as well as state parks, national parks, rivers, lakes, and recreation areas, Knoxville is a dream come true! Our new home sits in a beautiful area on a couple of acres within walking distance to the Tennessee river and will serve as a starting point to build the business of my dreams. Lush gardens, walkways, and water features are on the brain for Pavel Studio's but all of that is to come and of course I will share our progress here on the blog.

We won't be moving just yet, but will head out probably in early August to get the kids settled and Austin off to his new school. His favorite part about the move is that he gets to ride the school bus!... well that and having stairs for the first time:) I will post a few pics below. Anyone who wants to come visit please feel free to come stay with us anytime, besides, we need a few familiar faces to make us feel even more at home!

We will miss all of you sooo much, but at the same time we are giving you a great reason to take a vacation to Knoxville!

Have a great week.

-Matt

The interior.

And the back deck.

This of course is where I will spend a lot of my free time, the shop.
