catch up + thankfuls.

I'm going to be too lazy to recap every day or even to include pictures. 

The rest of staycation was really great.

My bathroom is amazing.

amazing.

seriously. amazing.

It's not 100% finished, but it has 97% of a floor, an installed and working double sink + vanity (re-plumbed by my amazing husband from one sink to two!), a fancy new toilet, a working shower, mostly painted walls. 

Though we're not quite done, it is fully functional.

I just want to know:

Why didn't anyone tell me to finish our master bath four years ago?!

Anyway, the rest of the week was full of just being a family, a trip to the museum, several parks, dinner with friends, sleeping in, and working on the house. It was good.
