We're Matt and Sally - and these are our little ones: Francis, George, Samuel and Scout (the dog, not pictured.)
We bought this domain name for our wedding 10 years ago and it evolved into a family blog when our oldest was only 3 months old. There have been lapses of writing here and there along the way, but we're back and hope to do better.
Matt is an attorney by day and woodworker by night. Sally is a momma, photography enthusiast, and Grammy Award winning freelance graphic designer. She designs album packaging for the Nashville music industry - having designed albums for Merle Haggard, Brooks and Dunn, Amy Grant, Blake Shelton, and Kenny Rogers to name a few. ;)
Our goal is just to live life creatively. The blog is simply a family journal. Our hope is to record as much as we can for our kids to enjoy someday. Because unfortunately, we bought the baby books, but never filled them out. Here's to hoping this makes up for that.

The Olson Family - John Paul got 47 !!! He's a biochem major. He was feeling BAD that he only got 47….What ever! He got more but we just couldn't get the exact spelling. Smart dude!
Michael - 20…and currently in a chemistry class, yikes.
Matt - 34 here, and I'm surprised at the easy ones I missed (tin, cobalt) and the obscure ones I could recall(strontium, einsteinium).
Jason Boyett - So, I started to do the periodic table but was distracted by the quiz to name all the teams in major league baseball.
I got them all, with 1:01 remaining. The AL Central just about stumped me, though.
katherine petillo - 27. did i really know these at some point?
