Can you believe someone gave us this incredible play yard? It's true! Our generous neighbor, Rick, is "buddies" with Isaac--the two are often found hobnobbing around Rick's yard, picking raspberries, inspecting plums, or chatting. Rick's own daughter had outgrown this and so he offered it to us for free--to his little buddy--if we could just find help to haul it over the fence (I knew there was a good use for the four elders in our ward! j/k). The boys LOVE it! Isaac has dubbed it his "tree house." Another generous family, the Quigleys, gave us these two beautiful little couches for our living room. I love them! The one opens as a chest--it's like the cedar chest I never had (though not made of cedar :). We finally had a last reason to banish the TV to the basement, where it will permanently reside (hopefully).
