It sure is quiet at our house now!
Our youngest son went back to college last Sunday.
My heart is hurting, and sad that he is gone.
On the other hand, I’m excited for him to finish his senior year and to see what the future holds for him!
Thank goodness we won’t have to wait a whole year to see him again.
We will go out west, for his graduation, in the spring!
And that’s something to look forward to!
What we’ve been up to this week
Before he left, we had tons of fun with a family game night, a movie night, and a full day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
I love this picture I took of the boys in front of the Millenium Falcon in the Star Wars section of the park!
We had a fun-filled weekend, but now it’s time to settle into our typical routine!
What we’ve been up to on the blog
We shared our Winter home tour and gave tips to decorate for the season without making it look like Christmas!
Then, we kicked off the 2023 Winter Home Organization Challenge by tackling our kitchen cabinets and drawers.
If you need ideas to organize your kitchen, check out this post to see our best storage solutions!

We all love a great before and after! And Cindy from Reinvented Delaware shared not one, but THREE incredible transformations all using the same technique. It’s like Cindy energetically waved her wand singing bippity-boppity-boo and tapped the stepsisters along with Cinderella. They are all stunning.
