I don't have my act together enough yet to share pics and a recap of our Memorial Day trip to Aunt Karen's, but I saw a fun post at another blog that inspired me to share a few new favorites of the Ellerman household.
1. Desserts. I love trolling websites for fun desserts. Right now I'm in a quick and easy phase, but from time to time I like to dig into something a little more complex. For easy my current go-to is this dessert blog, and for more complex I'll be exploring this book Nanna and Oupa brought us back from South Africa.
2. Spin class. Because of #1, I am needing to do more of #2. Have you spun? Spinned? It's a crazy fun workout. I hate riding a real bike on the streets because cars scare me. Don't judge, I can't help it, I'm timid. But put that bike on a platform, and I'll ride going nowhere for hours.
3. Independence. I've been enjoying mine for quite some time, but Cole and Grady really are getting into the "no, ME DO!" phase. I have to tell you, I love it.
4. Fuller paychecks. Next week marks my return, albeit just for 4 months, to full-time work. I welcome the pay and additional hours at work to do the work I've been cramming into part-time hours and work from home, but I'm apprehensive about being gone from the boys more. I'm thinking because of #3 they'll be just fine.
5. Craftiness. Work is busy now, but in 8 weeks when the craziness subsides, I'll be attempting a quilt. Again. Not a second quilt, just a second attempt at finishing quilt #1. In the meantime, I get my homemade fix at this online homemade-goods store, Etsy. I could window shop for hours here.
Good ole fashioned family fun coming soon.
