It's February!

And it's 52 degrees! The sun is shining, the sky is blue! 

I love the look on Julianna's face! She's taking the books we got her to her room.

These are my other thrift shop purchases! Of course I looked them up online. The Coca Cola glasses sell for $8 each on eBay! The bowls, which were in the original Hallmark packaging, sell for $19.99! And the four tree dishes, which are Crate and Barrel, sell for $34 dollars! There were two sets of the dishes, and I bought both and gave Heather one. They are just so cute! 

I have to look for this pattern, the gnomes are just so cute! 

This is a huge tub of legos that were Manda's. Goal for the week is to start sending them to her, since Amary and Garrett are old enough to start enjoying them.

We got some sad news, Ralph's Aunt Dot, who is 93, had sudden onset severe dementia last year, and is now in a facility for her own safety. It was a hard decision for her sons, but her safety is paramount. She doesn't even recognize them anymore. Dementia is such an awful condition, it takes away all dignity. 

This is my birthday month! I already got a coupon from Olive Garden for a free dessert, which I redeemed yesterday. Texas Roadhouse wants to give me a free appetizer, and Applebee's wants to give me a free dessert.
