Dinner Conversation
Because there are so many of us, we pretty much have that whole holiday dining arrangement I’m pretty sure exists in most homes…. the adult table, and the kids table. Each table resides in rooms that are really only separated…
Hermit.
First it’s Autorama time. The prep for that is intense, and Hubby and Mr. Gatsby are basically hiding in the garage until things are ready. So of course once Autorama prep was in full swing, each kids car, in succession,…
