July Begins

We got to go to the Garland Theater with Travis! Bad Guys...the movie, not the company.

Soooo...Grace housesat/dogsat for the Morrows and had Josh and Kai over to watch a movie.  SOMEHOW Maisy found the red food coloring in the pantry and made quite the bloodstained memories! The carpet cleaning, the pink dog muzzle, the call from Jeff where he'd lost his mind over this...ha!

Nessa and I loved walking the trails behind MMS...OFF LEASH. She loved it! She would only go so far ahead of me, peek around the corner, and then run back to me. Pretty fun!

Jeff and Josh and Micah went to Beacon for the first time together...it was quite memorable in that Micah worked his TUSHIE off to bike all the way up, just to get a flat tire at the top and had to run it down. Talk about BAD TIMING!

November Feels

Nessa went in for a cut...so we took some cute furry pics beforehand so we could spend the next three weeks regretting her cut.

We picked up Maisy from the boarding vet a day early so that she wouldn't have to stay until Monday, Katie and the fam were coming home later that night.  Micah was NOT impressed with her smell.  She was happy to go home, family there or not! 

Kai came over to play Catan, we put up Micah's birthday table, and the youngest Lochhead found Dogman.

Mid-November Highlights

Katie and I snuck down to the farm on a Monday in November to help Mom and Dad put the deck furniture away.  It was nice to sneak down there...

We had more snow on Nov 10...and when I went to help Maisy in the middle of the day I found the moose toy DESTROYED in her crate.  I got to use the Morrows' CENTRAL VAC!  Super sweet.

Veteran's Day was on a Wednesday this year, and we thanked our favorite veteran, Randy!  We stayed and visited a bit on the porch...it meant a lot to him and Jeff and I were happy to have our kids experience this.

Grace made some pumpkin cake!  And Micah got an early birthday present from G'ma Colleen--she recovered the desk chair for his room!

The pillow was an extra bonus.  "I bet she ordered extra fabric on purpose," Micah thought.  Because that seemed just like something G'ma Colleen would do for him.  :)

Still adding little touches...there was an ugly mirror closet door here, and Colleen hemmed this curtain for me to use instead. LOVE IT.

Haha.  The memes going around these days...

More on the basement--flooring, appliances, painted walls!

We really like the gray!  Grace wasn't sure she'd like it, as she was thinking she'd move into this room, but she ended up loving it!

The tidy birthday table is set...but everything was moved to the island bar, so...meh.

 And this year I decided that it made me happy to have my Good Earth Tea bags out as decoration in the kitchen.  Yep.  Happiness is...

Covid Week TEN! Food, hammock time, G'ma Dianne visit, and MAISY!!!
