The Day After

The house was full this time yesterday; ten kids and their thirteen adult companions gathered here to celebrate Miss Sarah Grace's fourth trip around the sun. A great time was had by all. My old camp friend Cindy Mills came through with a BEAUTIFUL eggless cake for our snow princess. Check it out!
Lisa, Mike, and the cousins stayed a bit longer than most to enjoy some frozen pizza and some down time. They have certainly suffered their fair share of stress lately (new job, lost job, new house, selling the old -- all still in the process) . . . It was so nice to enjoy a few slow minutes with them even though it meant their driving home in the dark down our windy, deer-ridden road.
Today we have cleaned and straightened and play with new toys. George has ridden his bike on the trainer (even he has decided that 24 degree weather isn't fit for a ride outside . . . ) and watched a lot of football. I just made a pot of white chicken chili, and the girls are doing leftover party crafts downstairs. All is well in the hollow.
