Mama & Da's Night OUT!



Completely un-Aidan related BUT on Saturday night Mama and Da pretended like we were 22 again. I then paid for it on Sunday (like, it hurt) because of course I am not 22. 
Uncky Jason & Auntie M were in town and we had a rockin' weekend. 

Car wash...

This is what Aidan thought about the car wash on Saturday afternoon...

A family heirloom becomes a treasure chest...




This chest was owned by my Grandma and Grandpa Hoeksema and was recently given to me by my mama. Until today it's been in our basement and I've been desperate to incorporate it into our home. Today was the day. Tonight we moved the changing table from Aidan's room into the basement. It is no longer necessary as he is too big and we can make better use of his room space. It is a bitter sweet exchange because it symbolizes his baby days are almost entirely behind us. My one saving grace is that now this beautiful and incredibly meaningful piece will now be a part of our lives everyday. It's perfect and he loves it.

An incredible find...

While out boutique shopping this weekend I found this! It's a real street sign from who knows where but I was SO meant to have found it. Can you imagine anyone else in Minneapolis having taken this home? I couldn't and had to share with the sales gal why it was so meant to be mine. I'm still in shock and awe at this incredible find and now it will be mine for always.
