Ha! On a Friday . . . with an excess of photos, nonetheless. I'm feeling good about this, peeps!
From top to bottom, left to right:
One of our extremely organized (and mostly alphabetized) DVD storage systems that I bought and put together for one of John's Christmas gifts . . . it's pretty amazing, if I do say so myself!
Sick Halle. On the couch. With the dog. The living is good around here when someone is sick!
The laundry that I did and folded on Wednesday. There were a couple more loads done after I snapped this picture.
Dip that I bought at Trader Joe's. Not as yummy as I would have thought. Doesn't even begin to compare to the spicy bean dip at Tres! Or even my own 7 layer dip!
Hairstyle by Halle.
Requisite photo of Dylan. Lest you think I never take his picture.
Halle colored her foot blue yesterday while I was on the phone. In about 2 minutes flat.
Halle's colored foot turned the water blue in the sink. Which became a whole-other fun thing to do. Mermaid party in the sink!
Mia's famous chocolate chip cookies. John's very most favorite cookies.
The dog and cat, assuming their positions to watch over the 'hood.
I finally watched the sock bun tutorial on YouTube. This was Halle's sock bun in the evening.
These were Halle's curls in the morning! Pretty amazing. She was fairly impressed with them.
Something clicked in our little artist and she is suddenly just that . . . an artist. She is blending colors and having so much fun coloring. She sat and colored for hours the other day.
Halle loves these stencils from Melissa and Doug. They keep her amused for very long stretches of time! And we can't believe how creative she is with them.
Funny faces with Mom. (I'll spare you all 30 variations of this photo!)
I bought myself this steam mop for Valentine's Day. But I'm not convinced that I'm going to keep it. We don't have a huge amount of hard floor to clean, so I'm not entirely certain that it's worth it. Hmmmm. Any advice?
Hello Dove chocolates! Happy Valentine's Day to you too!
I rearranged some stuff on the mantle and made it look all lovey. For someone who is not a fan of Valentine's Day? I'm feeling awfully jolly about it! (Don't you love my burlap heart wreath? Lauren made it for us at Christmas!)
And that, my friends, is how to do a Friday Phone Dump . . . on a Friday!
