It was a tasty dinner from COMO Smoke and Fire to celebrate the kids’ birthdays!
COMO Smoke and Fire
Happy 12th Birthday
A big HAPPY 12th BIRTHDAY to the boy who made our family whole! John drives me nuts a lot, but life would not be the same without this video-game loving, baseball-playing, continually-growing boy. I hope your day is fun even though it is a small celebration this year!
Golden Birthday
Happy Golden Birthday, Laura! I cannot believe that I have had the privilege of being your Mom for 14 years now. You start Hickman High School in just over one month and, while I am so excited for all you will experience, I am sad that we are only four short years from college. Your Dad and I love you to the moon and back!
Organization
Be still, my organization-loving heart… Andy told me we needed some food storage in our basement, so I began slowly stocking up. Well, I could not find anything on the shelves, because there was so much food. There was also a lot of wasted space above the food on the tall shelves. So, I went in search of organizers on Amazon. This is the result, and I still have stackable wire baskets to arrive! Of course, I did realize that I had not stocked up on nearly as much food as I thought…

Etsy Find
I found these earlier this week at one of the many Etsy stores and I had to have them for our Monopoly-themed guest bedroom. These are too fun!
When Andy saw them, he asked if that store had one for the United Center. So, I contacted the seller about making a custom one. That is now ordered along with one for Hanson Field, which is Western Illinois University’s football field. I am looking forward to adding those to these two!
