FORTY-TWO

Theo in his favorite aisle of any store: The Halloween aisle

2023 week forty-two

Theo's birthday gift is finally complete. Here's a little tour. He wanted to offer each photo it's own color from his LED light strips.  He now has a bed side shelf and shelves running around the top of his room.

He has a wall of shelves that can be placed at variable heights for changing needs. 

Some more shelf action. 

And here's his little desk and peg board center. He has such a small room and finding a desk that wouldn't over power it was tricky. Luckily, IKEA had this breakfast table for one that mounts to the wall. The table top can fold down if he wishes. It is perfect for this little corner. He is so happy with his room and being able to decorate and redecorate his shelves and pegboard. 

We went to a Harry Potter movie night at my sister-in-laws house. She loves the books but had never seen the movies! We were more than happy to help remedy that. She made butterbeer and another family brought popcorn and chocolate pretzel wands. 

Poor Theo was betrayed by his beloved bugs. He got stung by a wasp this weekend. And surprisingly this didn't happen while he was throwing rocks at a wasp nest earlier in the day. 

We were so happy to help celebrate our favorite baby twins' first birthday! Lord of the Rings style. 

The kids just played outside the whole time with their new friend Hallie racing and tumbling and having grand adventures. 

Happy Birthday babies! 

Hey look, it's "cooling" down a bit. I get to mix up all my autumny clothing with an added blazer -in the mornings only. 

Matt and his brother Jacob were back to work on the fence this weekend.  

Saturday evening.

Sunday evening. 

Matt is doing such an amazing job. I'm so impressed.
