EvY at HomE

Well Thanksgiving came and Thanksgiving went and now it is the most wonderful time of the year! I used to pose her next to it and now she's helping me decorate it! THEY GROW UP SO FAST. Here is the kids room in all it's festive Christmas glory. I got Alice & Wally new flannel sheets from Target that are so cute. She got unicorns natch and he got dinosaurs.

Could my enthusiasm and and general feeling of hope be about the advent season, my rise above depression, my cool new job/promotion, the results of the free and fair election that gave us Joseph Biden as president and our first female elected vice president Kamala Harris from California?! ALL OF THE ABOVE!  YES TO LIFE! YES TO STAYING IN MORE ! On the last season of the Fredrich Family show we had celebrated anniversaries, babies, and 2 birthdays. This season we've hit the high holidays. Halloween this year was different of course but in true EvY style I went a little bonkers.. maybe a LOT bonkers because this was the schedule for the day. To make up for the lack of Halloween activities I made a "Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" carnival in the driveway. This year the kids have been obsessed...
