I found this post and had to share it – below is the copied content, I was so amazed at how high quality their design was even in 1965! And, the THIRD  most printed book other than the Bible, I had no idea!

I was reading up on this because of an article, I hopped across regarding Ikea’s switch to Verdana from Ikea Sans/Serif.

Something inside of me leaps when I hear of others talking so controversially of fonts and typesets! Sure, there is a lot going on in the world that is much more urgent, but TYPE is the way we communicate those urgencies.

My parents like to keep the annual IKEA catalogs – it says it is the most printed book after the bible. Yesterday my mum showed me this…. the IKEA catalog from the year 1965.

It is not in the best shape and the front cover is missing, but still an extraordinarie experience to look through.

“Furnish 2 rooms, kitchen and hall for less than 3300 crowns” it says here on the ad below.

Like something? You could try if this order form still works….

Just wanted to share this slide show of the past year of jer and I, I’m not surprised that a lot of these photos were taken while we were in the car – we’ve driven a lot of miles! Jeremy’s total is in days spent in the car, those 2 hour trips add up!

blog post I’ll write (on here) as a single woman. As Kelly Cain. My blog’s name will stay the same, though, so don’t fret all of you RSS readers out there.

I’m not quite so sure why I’m awake – I’m ridiculously tired, but awoke this AM at 5, and just haven’t been able to go back to sleep since. I’ve tried, believe me, I want to sleep. My mind is overloaded currently with details, ribbons, paper, and fonts, guest lists, volunteer lists, nametags and flowers. While, these are by no means bad things to think about, I wonder if my mind or my body could handle much more of this pace and amount of information.

In just 2 weeks, I’ll be Kelly Smith. Just yesterday I joked that if “I have to put on a white dress and have everyone stare at me so that Jeremy and I can live in the same town, then so be it!” We’re excited and ready to not have to say “bye” every 5 days. These past few weeks have been strange really – I haven’t known how to cope with the goodbyes as frequent as they were, and the hellos as infrequent as they seemed to be.

In the past few weeks it’s as if God is giving me some treasured time with some friends that I haven’t seen in so long! On the way to Emily’s wedding, I met up with Holden and Michael and got to meet their brand new baby boy (and his monkey rug) Whitt! That night Jeremy and I stayed with Renn and Roger in Kannapolis (right outside of Charlotte) before heading to Emily and Thad’s wedding on Sunday! I cannot say enough how great it was to see these precious friends from college! It was so good tor reconnect and get to catch up on life! When I came back to Wilmington I got to see my sweet friend Lindsey who labored in Slovakia all last year with her stint team. A few days later I was hanging out with Jeanette, another dear friend from college, whom life and distances have kept us from seeing each other for over 2 years! With most of these friends, I had not seen them in at least a year, most of them 2 years, and some of them even longer! But, oh how sweet it was to reconnect and to be able to see them before the wedding festivities!

There seem to be so many life changes around me as well that I haven’t hardly had a chance to fully comprehend babies born, engagements galore (tis the season), and weddings. It’s a busy time, a good time! I have much to be thankful for! And this is perhaps the last blog post I’ll write for awhile, well at least till after the wedding and honeymoon, we’re 10 days away!

I know that this is word – “provision” is so easily tossed around, but I feel like it’s been the theme of my song. I’ve seen God provide in ways I didn’t know He would/could/wanted to…

I’m thankful for the way He’s made a way for Jeremy and I to live in Wilmington, the way He seemingly restored my transmission and the way He’s providing for itty bitty wedding details – and bigger ones, financially, and in many other areas. I stand in awe.

I was reflecting on His provision, trying to sum it up in a few short adjectives. I came up with these.

God’s provision is complete, thorough, and perfect.

I’ve seen God provide in ways that I didn’t understand and later came to realize…that without me doing anything, God does provide. Trusting God is a whole other ball game, but it’s beautiful and brings peace.

Are you trusting God for provision or are you relying on your own strengths?
