September 1st was a big day for Emily, she turned one year older. We thru a big bash for her that day which included; a surprise breakfast, lunch party at work, and another party in the evening. Emily’s coworkers made a rather humorous list for Emily. They wrote this list on a huge poster and posted it in the clinic where she works.

Happy Birthday EM, LOVE YOU!
Also my final year of grad school started this week. I’m really excited about this semester, because it is competition studio. For the entire semester we focus on entering a competition and creating a design for it. I am entering a competition that is held in France each year. It’s called the Chaumont International Garden Festival. Landscape Architects, Architects, and Students from all over the world submit designs for the summer long festival. The judges will then select 20 of the designs and provide an all-expense paid trip to come to France and install their design. As you can see in the picture the shape of each garden is shaped like a bell. This year’s theme is “Gardens of the Future”. So I’m excited to start going, and it would be awesome to install your garden in France. So if I win Emily and I might be making a trip to France this upcoming summer!
