Meet Daniel and Brittany
The challenge that began with "Have a nice life, Daniel Burton" is progressing with favorable results. Surviving and thriving on lively discussions about books, Abby, or the post-grad school world, the Burtons show signs of excellent health and familial success.
Dan and Britt met on a hot July 4th in 2005. Shortly after inviting her to join him for a panoramic view of the Independence Day fireworks, and not long after her denial, Daniel and Britt agreed to break the ice over ice cream. They soon realized that they were both book geeks, decided a permanent union was worth evaluating, and were married just over a year later on another beautiful July day.
After graduating with a law degree from both he and Brittany's alma mater's rival, Daniel is corporate counsel at the Woodbury Corporation, a commercial real estate management and development company in Salt Lake City. Meanwhile, and far more interestingly, Brittany is raising a new generation of Burtons as full-time mother and family creative director. Abby is two and a half, and #2 is on the way, with arrival expected in late June of 2011. The Burtons look forward to many years of exploring canyons, creeks, and mountain tops, swapping novels, notes, and ideas, and enjoying great discussions about people, politics, and their family.
Daniel and Brittany are both graduates of the 2002 class of Brigham Young University. Abby is gunning to graduate from diapers, sooner than later.

That bird fabric (2nd from the L, bottom row) is a perennial favorite of mine. Someday I'll actually but some!
I think we share similar tastes in fabric. Nice choices!
I'm sad your friend above got to comment about the bird first. I love it!!! (Quite frankly, I love all of it.) I have been cleaning my sewing room. I have a bazillion projects started and just about zilch finished. I'm banning myself from buying any more fabric or starting any more projects until I at least finish two of my current ones. Ahhhh....
I'll go with you to the FA meeting. My husband, who is usually extremely tolerant of my fabric buying addiction has put me on a buying freeze until I actually use some of my "collection." I love all your choices!
I'm afraid I have to comment on my own blog. It's just that I open it up and see those fabrics that I'm lusting over and... and... And then I know even more than I did yesterday that I have to have them in some serious yardage someday soon.
Andi, we can start our own FA meeting. But we'll have to use it as front for getting better and then go fabric shopping or sew or something.
Oh, and I think I need to add here that Dan said to me yesterday, "If you like those fabrics so much, why don't you just go sew something with them right now." And then I said, "I don't have them yet silly!"
I'm sure he then thought (but nicely didn't say), "Why don't you just use some of the hundreds of yardage of fabric that you already have to make something instead of buying more!"
But you see, this is how you know you need to attend FA. Because it's never enough. You always want more. Even since yesterday I've started thinking about some other prints I didn't blog that must be mine.
i love your passions in life!
you and Joy both can start a FA.
