A Cozy Day At Home

Lately it is rare for there to be a day 

where we are primarily at home all day. 

Usually we are running here or there.

The schedule varies a lot but it is busy!

Even yesterday there was a quick trip

to the Post Office to send a box of

candles to a customer.

But that was the only 

running to be done.

We were H.O.M.E.

And it felt so very good!

 I lit the butterfly candle.
Then I got to work...
cleaning, sorting, organizing this and that.

 Chelsea baked a pumpkin pie!

She also made the lasagna.

I was planning to make it....

but she didn't mind

and I was grateful as there

was more work and cleaning to

be done....

Together we made garlic bread...
with her addition of Oregano.
The kid loves the stuff.
It was good!

And I changed out the flowers in the 

canister vase from Spring to Fall colors.

This was one of those days where I 

very much enjoyed our home.

It was so nice just being here and 

doing the things that make it

fresh and inviting.

Even Jonathan got in on it.

He cleaned and scrubbed 

what I have dubbed
"the boys' bathroom"

downstairs.

That was a job!

But it is all clean and shiny now!

Thanks Jonathan!!!!

We are a happy group...

who enjoyed pumpkin pie and 

ice cream last evening about 

8:30pm.

Then our day ended around 10:30pm
with a belly laugh at this.
Karen and Julianne are so
observant and funny!
Warren, Chelsea and I
really enjoyed the mental image.

Have a wonderful day.
We'll be around...
Warren, Jonathan and Mr Rabe are
going to be putting a new roof on my
Mom's shed.  She has been very
patiently waiting for them to find the
time to do it.  Today...is THE day!
Woo-hoo!
