Show us where you live Friday...or Monday, in my case

Kelly over at Kelly's Korner is hosting "Show us where you live Friday". I was busy Friday so here's my Monday contribution.

Our playroom/TV room....

Jackpot!

I know I said I was on a blogging hiatus but some things are too exciting not to share...like these treasures I found at our church rummage sale.

Oneida silver tea set - $25
Glass jar - $2
Chunky white necklace - $1

I'm feeling very good about this $28 purchase!

Preschool graduation

It was today....and I made it through the entire thing with no tears. Woo hoo for me!

Now let's talk about kids' attire for said event. Seattle is known for grunge and preschool graduation did not break any stereotypes. I know I am super anal about what my kids wear (i.e. no athletic shorts to school, etc.) but t-shirts and sweatpants for graduation? Seriously?

Sorry if this sounds snobby but I think it's important to get a little spiffed up for special occasions. I'll step down from my soap box now.

On hiatus....

I'm taking a break for a month or so. Summer is upon us and I need to focus on my daily life with my family.

I'll be back...pinky swear!

Car talk

My friend overheard her son and my son, H, discussing "girlfriends" in the back of the car. Her son asked H if he had a girlfriend and who he was going to marry. H replied, "I don't need to have a girlfriend until I'm older....like my dad did."

Oh sweetness!

Earth Day goal

(H's Earth Day book from preschool)

Perhaps I've been a little over the top about wasting bandaids at our house. New motto...no blood, no bandaid.
