Easy entertaining

Nicole came over for dinner with Theo and Zoe (Andy is traveling), and it was so easy.  I think it's because the dining room is not in the kitchen, and the major playroom is not the living room (which is not the dining room or the kitchen).  We had sandwiches on homemade rolls, and smoothies, and cookies made of leftover hamentaschen dough.  It was downright relaxing... and that's with four kids five and under!  Then when it's all over, there is our marvelous dishwasher to clean it up.  We're having people over again tomorrow.  Why not?

Nicole asked Jordan what his favorite thing is about the new house, and he said "My bedroom.  Because I share it with Aaron."  Awwww.

Today's home improvement was to organize the kids' stored clothes.  There is now one bin for each size between Jordan and Aaron, plus a small collection of things that are still too big for Jordan, and an outgoing bag of stuff that Aaron has outgrown.
