this and that

so this morning, two weeks after christmas, i finally got around to filling out some thank you notes. eleanor already personalized a few and wolfgang colored some scribbles, which im sure probably say something like, "thank you for all of the trains!" ... he got sooo many trains this year because, well, the boy is obsessed. we don't mind one bit because it's his thing, ya know. it makes him happy and that makes us happy. 

anyway, currently there is a carrot cake baking in the oven and the boys are napping. soon i will have to wake them up so we can go grab sis from school. tonight we are celebrating my husband's birthday. every year i make a carrot cake and eleanor makes him a card and we blow up some balloons and it's really sweet. 

we ordered a new sink and faucet for the kitchen and the butcher blocks are sitting in the garage, waiting to be installed. i can't wait for this project to begin next week and i will for sure be sharing before and afters here. 

that's all for now. i hope everyone had a merry christmas and a happy new year. xo. 

p.s. i ordered our thank you notes from artifact uprising and i just love how they turned out.
