Habitat for Humanity--I mean the Dolans

On MLK weekend, June and Kiara flew up from SF for a quick visit and to dig me out of these boxes. It's been over 3 years since we've seen them and it was so nice to get together again as if no time has passed between us. Didn't think we'd get much unpacking done but June had a mission...to unpack the boys' stuff (hallelujah!)
I cannot believe how much TOYS we've accumulated over the years! TOOO much! To Goodwill a lot of them will go! Glad they're coming to pick up next week!
The cats were not the only one enamored with Kiara. Little Ronan was quite taken by her. He kept forgetting how to pronounce her name so he called her "the girl with the green shoes". The boys loved having her around especially because she's so great at playing with legos.
I wonder what Ronan was thinking in this photo. Patrick--classic 7 yr old mischief. Love it!


My parents came up also to help take care of Gabriel while we get settled. They've been so incredibly helpful! Keeping me sane amidst all the moving chaos.Gabriel is SOOO LOVING hanging out with them.

Thanks to our first guests on Lancelot Lane--our house is much warmer and feels like home...messy but warm!
