All the other things

I should really make it a priority to document events as they happen.  Lumping them all together like this seems to make them less important.  That's not the case at all!   I just feel like I'm flying through 2018.

I preordered the big kids' pictures.  I heard someone say if you don't like them and you pre-ordered you can send your child back for retake day?  Is that true?  Is there a social connotation to it: like is it rude to the photographer?

I loved Grace's school picture, but was not a fan of Juliet's.  It felt wrong to only order grace's so I didn't order any.  Maybe this spring?


My MOPS table went out for a mom's night out at Applebee's.  It was so relaxing to just sit and talk without interruption.  4 hours a month is never enough!


We have had leaves and leaves and more leaves.  I've been trying to mulch them once a week, and the kids fuss at me every time I do, like there aren't a million more about to fall.


Grace enjoying some hot tea on a cold day.


Billy had a test that required anesthesia, so I was his designated driver.


Afterwards he was pretty unsteady on his feet, so we went to an old school drive in nearby (Lansing is a giant Sonic void. = ( )


The twins 'love' their new Pajamas.


We enjoyed a lovely dinner at the Eaton's house, and wrapped up the evening with a game of clue.  Billy won!


I got to do the Tom the Turkey activity with Grace and Juliet!  I feel so fulfilled.  Grace wanted tom to hide as a present, and Juliet hid him in/under a rainbow. = )


How the twins nap in the car:


We also had a lovely Saturday game day with the Pritchards, but didn't take a single picture!  It was a fun day too. And the kids loved having their friends over for hours and hours. = )

life is good.

later days
