We saw some turkey fabric last month, while we were killing time at a Jo-Ann’s in Maryland, and Eamonn asked if we could buy some for pajama pants. Eamonn was four years old, last time I made him seasonal pj pants. Aidan was seven. And now, four years later, Eamonn has long outgrown his own […]

Yeah, there’s nothing like a big ol’ hole in the pipe to make you declutter a basement in a hurry! Fun. […]
