Just wanted to let everyone know we're expecting a little girl at the end of April.  It looks like the boys will not have the advantage in our house anymore! :)

Graphical Interiors Launch Day!!!!

Since March 2009 the idea of a business including vinyl wall decals* has been circulating through Roberto Torres' head. The idea solidified later on in the spring when he purchase the equipment and began talking to his friend Joel, a childhood friend and old mission companion. What was thought to become no more than an online store has evolved to a company with the potential to become "...really a national manufacturer of fine wall decals" says Roberto Torres, the founder and co-owner of Graphical Interiors. Joel and Roberto have spent the past year and a half researching the modern home decor industry and trends, building an e-commerce website, developing marketing, operation and sales strategies, collaborating with Graphic Designers, and creating a product catalog. In an attempt to be prepared for immediate success and expansion the owners of Graphical Interiors have delayed and post-poned the launch of their new business in order to work out as many wrinkles as possible before going public. After months of preparation and hard work we are proud to announce that Graphical Interiors is now open for business! You can check out their website for a wide selection of fine wall decals at http://www.graphicalinteriors.com/. Graphical Interiors offers high-quality, custom work as well. When you see our product, fall in love and want to become involved, here's your link. In the meantime, have a blast loving your walls!!*Wall decals are made from top quality vinyl which features a matte surface to look like a hand painted mural. It is a great alternative to wallpaper, paint or stencils. It's easy - just peel and stick. And when you are ready for a new look, the decals are removable.

Family Pictures

I  don't have everyone's pictures, so we're going to need people to add theirs, but here are some of the family pictures...... (Roberto did such an awesome job with designing the shirts!)

Cindy and her girls with Grandma

Cindy's boys with Grandma (I think it's hilarious and very Taylor and David that they're not wearing the reunion shirts)

Diane and her girls with Grandma

Josh and his family with Grandma (what a good looking family!)

Grandma with her Son-in-laws.......always stirring up trouble at these things :)  Where did they get the Magnum PI shades?

Stuetz Family (missing Joel & Daniel) - I like the head cut-off look- it's typical of a lot of family pictures taken

Welcome to the New Family Blog

Hi everyone!  In an effort to keep in touch and know what everyone is up to we've put together this blog for everyone to participate in.  We thought it might be a little easier to keep up with than trying to send a newsletter around.  For those of you that need tutorials on how to do this let me (thompson.rebekah@gmail.com) or Angie know and we can help you out.  We can call and walk you through it for those that feel a little technologically challenged.  Also, if you have your own blog that you would like posted on the side you can add it or send one of us the URL to add to the blog.  Feel free to post what's going on with your families and all the reminiscing you want to do.  This can be a lot of fun and a good way for everyone to feel more connected to each other.
