Happy Faces

The friend visits continue. After staring at each others faces all winter, Brett and I decided we needed to make a better effort to see our second-string friends. (We don't call them that to their faces.) Just as we prepared to put ourselves out there, our first-string friends picked up the slack and have kept us busy with celebrations.

Here we are at Hayden and Jenny's baby shower last weekend.

I went with pink and fluffy to celebrate their little girl, and added some tiny pineapples because I just couldn't resist them.

On this night, we gathered to celebrate the pricelessness of pizza and good friends.

Meanwhile, these mortal enemies sleep butt-to-butt. (Pip goes where Grace goes. Grace hates it.)

Here, Brett and Erik are doing some very big and very spontaneous planning. More news to come.

Scenes from the weekend: (left) Brett strums and sings while stomping on drum pedals. Zippers the One Man Band. (right) Brett attempts to read with me but we always wind up chatting through reading hour. It's my favorite part of Sunday morning.

Last night celebrating St. Paddy's Day

Tonight we have digital game night with Alex and Jessie. They have us learning basic sign language so we can hang with one of their best deaf friends later this year. 

Tomorrow we have a Korean BBQ outing with most of the faces you've just seen above. It's been a precious little ride but it all ends Monday. Starting next week I'm booked through to June.

Back to the flower dungeon!
