Being a military family, you move around a lot. My husband & I joke about what we will do when we have to live in an area for more than 3 years - that has been our longest time frame in one area. Our shortest was 8 months. Prior to living in Kuwait we moved every year for 5 years, sometimes twice within a year. The crazy life we lead, but it's ours!

Shortly after we got to Kuwait & settled into our life here, I decided to make a canvas,
Home is Where the Heart Is. I have all these little hearts of the places we've lived. My sweet & creative friend
Crystal made a comment way back when that she'd like one of those canvases for her. Almost a year later we finally got together & made one.

We spent the day chatting, laughing & creating. I had to laugh at her FB post that she didn't know if she would be creative enough. The joy of crafting with others is learning from them - you get a whole other perspective. She even taught me a few things :)

Crystal is one of my friends leaving this year - she'll have a new heart to add. While moving to different locations is a constant in this life we live, you never quite get used to it.

YAHOO!!!! I love my canvas : ) Thank you, Nerissa!!
I feel like we should have spent that time together long ago. But, I am so thankful we did and I think I could do that with you every day ; ) If only that was my "day" job, eh?!
You have been a true blessing to me Nerissa and I am honored to get to know you better. May God Bless the remainder of your time in Q8!
I love the canvases! Great job to both of you.
