My sister-in-law sent me this last week. Check out the video, it’s FAB!
When this project when UP, a other things came SHAKING DOWN!! School is out for more than just summer…

You might sense my excitement, but with that comes bittersweet feelings. First off I would not of made it without the encouragement and friendship (and BIG-time positive attitudes) of this gal, Jennifer:

and this guy: Eric. He is headed to Montana to do non-profit architectural work with 100 Fold Studio. “Architect John Hudson, who runs a thriving architecture practice in Homewood, AL, announces the formation of a non-profit architecture firm called 100 Fold Studio. The mission of 100 Fold Studio is to offer affordable & innovative architectural services to global ministries as well as form alliances with organizations in need of highly qualified architects. The vision of 100 Fold Studio, a biblical reference to the Parable of the Seed—Mark 4:1-20, is to multiply the studio into a global network of licensed architects & intern architects that are readily available to serve in missions. Focusing on long-term internships, 100 Fold Studio provides a unique opportunity for a young architect to work towards licensure while serving third-world communities. Interns from Auburn University’s Urban Studio program are joining 100 Fold Studio this summer. In June, Hudson and 100 Fold Studio will be relocating their offices to the campus of Youth with a Mission (YWAM), an interdenominational mission organization, in Lakeside, Montana. The move will allow 100 Fold Studio to immediately form strategic partnerships with YWAM’s operations in over 150 countries.”

Now let me get back on track. Our class is SOOOOOOOOO close. We are like one BIG happy family. We have been in each others personal space for almost 5 years. We probably know too much about each other, and wouldn’t have it any other way. I cannot wait to see what God has in store for each and every one of these amazing friends of mine ![]()

I celebrated with that family and my real family as well (minus Stacy my sister-in-law)

and my boyfriend who flew in from NYC

and later we celebrated with a photo shoot. Of course i had to take the traditional picture in front of the sign at Samford hall, but architecture students like to get a little more creative.

So our picture taking extravaganza continued on throughout the day.

we posed.

and danced.

we smiled.

and laughed.

we chilled.

and we literally jumped for joy.


because the last few years have taken a toll on our mental and physical health.

it was a good day!!
