We had the genuine privilege of spending the afternoon and evening with our dear friends, the Dahlsjos 💜 The kids didn’t know, but the adults did, and it was a REALLY fun surprise for everyone! It felt like it had been much too long since we’d been together, and then suddenly, it felt like no time had passed.
There was a lot of chasing and playing. Lots of reading. Lots of drawing. Lots of music. Lots of Pokemon. And much to my delight, lots of crocheting!

We had an almost-birthday boy on hand, so there was also lots of good food! Though let’s be real – we don’t really need an excuse to eat good food.

We very much missed our fourth 💜 But he was very busy tying up one million loose ends around home, so we will have to catch him next time!

Priority one was getting all the hooligans back together, and I can say with total confidence that mission was accomplished! 💜

We love you so much, Dahlsjos! We’re looking forward to seeing you again in the new year! 💜
