First Week Home

I must admit, being away from our little guys (ad our big guy) for three weeks was tough! And, clearly, the feeling was mutual.

Though when we'd left it was June Gloom and not terribly warm, we returned home to crazy hot summer weather. 

We spent the first day and a half resting and unpacking. Thankfully, Stace was able to be home on Monday to recover, too.

Tuesday was Nick's 40th birthday, and Melanie arranged a lovely party 

Nick's friend brought a Polaroid camera.
 

We were out of food, after being away so long, and my inspectors were eager to check out what I brought home.

Cora has a fancy-dress party coming up, so I got out a few dresses for her to look at. Seb found one of my old bridesmaid dresses to be a great nap spot.

The kittens would love to be hunters. Winston loves bird-watching, and Evie really wanted this lizard on the patio door track.

Stace's return to work this week went well, and Cora was able to play D&D a few times. I was happy to catch up with my friend Kelly on Friday, getting dinner with her.
