And we're Home

Perhaps it's time I made an official introduction:

Meet Kelly & Sara, housemates extraordinaire. 

We have spent these last few months living life in all of its nooks and crannies and--
since nooks and crannies are full of mess as well as joy--
we have loved and learned a lot about each other, 
and about ourselves.

Our living of life has involved 
intentionality most often in the form of food,
 like this early fall picnic
where we took advantage of a lovely place, 
and learned more of the loveliness of each other.

Our fooding has also occurred in the form of celebration,
like this sushi dinner for Kelly's birthday early in October.

Most recently, 
our celebrating occurred surrounding the incident of Sara's birth

when we cooked a giant brinner
for a collection of friends, 
and spent the remainder of the evening in games
and serenade.
Laughing, living, eating, celebrating.
Life; Home.

I thank God for you, Lauren Kooistra!!

(Life certainly wouldn't be as interesting if there weren't all of those nooks and crannies to explore.)
