Here are our girls modeling the new hardwood floors! I think you can tell in this picture that it is not a perfect match between the old & new, but it is much harder to see that when you are on the first floor. Anyone have caption ideas for what Meigou is thinking in this shot?
Kaelah decided to join me from where I was taking pictures. She was happy to be home! Of course, right after opening up windows we left again and she was happy about that too. (:
I couldn't leave out a picture of the stairs between our living room/kitchen & the family room/laundry room. I am absolutely delighted that I will never have to look at that chunk of carpet again. We could never get it clean -- and you should have seen the carpet after it was taken off those stairs! I was threatening to put hardwood in the entire house after seeing that! Alas, I just can't imagine bedrooms without carpeting. BUT... we've already had a couple milk spills & a vomit where there used to be carpet & it was SOOOO EASY to clean up! I've informed Danny we're never moving out of this house. Ever.

I think Meigou is thinking "What would happen if I peed on this floor?"

I wish I knew what dogs were thinking, it would solve a lot of problems in our house. :) The floor looks awesome. That's interesting about the allergies. We took all the carpet out in our front room and LOVE it. We're thinking about doing it to the bedrooms too. I wake up every morning with allergies.

Homecoming 2025

By Sarah
The tail end of summer has been so much fun.  The weather has been fantastic and we've all had special occasions to look forward to.  First up, a family party for Natalie's softball team that included pizza, whiffle ball, and seeing the girls just have a good time together as a team. Here's my favorite photo from when Michelle helped her friend, A, celebrate her 16th birthday.  Although she has been friends with A & Z since her time at the Waldorf school, Michelle ended up hanging out with a lot of strangers and had a wonderful time.  I love seeing her branch out and make new connections while maintaining her core friend group. Homecoming week included a BBQ, Powder Puff game and drone show, parade past the middle school where I was volunteering at the Rattler Run, plus a very exciting football game that even Hubby attended by being one of the basketball parents to man the concession stand. Danny did a great job tossing candy instead of throwing it and the basket...

45

By Sarah
I feel spoiled. My parents and our whole family around a dinner table was perfection. Hubby provided roses & a grilled steak, roasted potatoes, and fresh salad dinner complete with chocolate cake (decorated by Michelle).  My mom and dad bought me sweet and thoughtful gifts (including a mug Natalie had painted when my mom took her to Crackpots this summer) and even stayed to watch K Pop Demon Hunters in the basement. We thought it would be hilarious to watch them watch something so different from their favorite shows. They did not disappoint. It was a joyful evening that made me feel much better about turning 45 than I felt earlier in the day.  Below you’ll find what I had written before we celebrated.  Photo credit goes to Kate! 10 Years Ago I filled out interview questions for my 35th birthday and 5 years ago I did the same, adding 5 more questions.  I really don't think I should add 5 more every year because this is probably already too much information for an...

Adventures Begin

By Sarah
Michelle had been saving her money for years. She didn’t know exactly what for, but it turns out she used that money to travel with a group from her high school to Asia!  When people asked me at the end of the school year what I was excited for this summer, the first thing I would think of is Michelle’s trip to Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam!  We loved getting texts and photos almost everyday and were able to FaceTime her a couple times.  She had quite the range of experiences from museums and treasures such as Angkor War to cooking classes and time on the water to learning how to fold flowers for offerings at famous Buddhas, and even hanging out with rats that sniff out landmines to be properly disposed of.  We are absolutely thrilled for her! While Michelle was in Asia, Hubby and Kate worked and Kate hung out with friends doing things like paddle boarding (it is great to hear her work stories!), Natalie and I watched the Women’s College World Series when we weren’...
