Happy Friday!
So, it’s going to be a quiet weekend. I said goodbye to my youngest son who hopped on a plane back to his home/work in Kazakhstan. He teaches ESL at a college, and while we miss him, it’s great to see him doing the things he loves.
In fact,
Just a quick note today as I’m jumping into work again.
*sigh*
Such a great week of vacation – I read two books by the pool…
And hung out with my beautiful grandchildren…(I taught Bubby how to make a woven potholder – remember those?)
Hubs watched crazy soap box derby crashes with our grandson…
And attended the 4th of July in the small town of Forest Lake!
Okay, the truth is, the Warren clan likes to have fun. We are loud, we play games, we laugh a lot and we know how to have a good time.
We’re on vacation right now (pix to come!) but to kick it off, we had an epic Gender Reveal party. So fun to celebrate an upcoming grandchild with our family.
Happy Friday!
As you read this, I’m heading over to my brother’s house to help throw a graduation party for his eldest daughter. Phase One of the Epic Warren Family vacation. Which I realize doesn’t sound like a vacation, but one of the things we enjoy doing together is helping others.
And I have an AMAZING team.
Oh, it’s a happy day when I walk into the kitchen and find my son, fresh off the plane from the other side of the world, making his breakfast. (Never mind his “I’ll humor you, Mom,” smile. He’s very sweet)
We’re gearing up for our annual Epic Warren Vacation so I’m working a light week this week…and thus starts a 2 part series (maybe more!) called What Susie May Learned While Doing Research.
Happy Friday. Okay, let’s just say it out loud, and get it out of the way. There was no newsletter on Tuesday.

It all started with a dare.
We were staying at a Hilton in Florida for my birthday getaway. (this was before we lived in Florida) and the pool director announced a “beginners scuba diving” experience in the pool.
The 5 foot deep pool.
Hubs said… “You’ve always wanted to see if you could do this…now’s your chance.”
I said.
I woke up to these lovelies this morning…
I usually kill flowers (hence why my house is full of fake flowers. Seriously. It’s okay to judge me. I’ve lived with this situation for a while now.)
These seem impervious to my neglect.
So, we did a thing. After we got our porch cleaned up we looked at it and said…we’re missing something…what is it?
Do you feel like this is Monday?
This is a quick note today because, well, are we sure it’s not Monday?
I was in Menards yesterday buying lilacs and my brain actually said…oh great, I’ll have tomorrow afternoon to plant them because TODAY IS SATURDAY.
Apparently not. I got the lilacs planted,
Let’s have a little catch up.
Last time we chatted, I was packing to drive home to MN.
My dog was freaking out about us leaving him behind. He grabbed his leash and followed us around the house. What a silly.
But sweet.
No one likes to be left behind,
