DD turned 12 this weekend. How’d that happen?? Time flies… Anyhoo, we celebrated on her birthday with a little cheesecake and celebrated her birthday the next day with family (and the “real” cake).

I hate to do it, but the fresh look of the room when all the holiday decorations are gone is rather inspiring.

After a house full of company and multiple parties, we are finally getting back to a regular schedule. Our little duet and their family went home Saturday.
