14 Things

I have thoughts! Not many. My brain is so foggy from lack of sleep lately haha. For example, I went to our local gas station to put gas in our car and buy a bundle of firewood so we could have a bonfire. I had to remind myself 5x not to go to the counter and say “I want to buy gas” (because I bought it at the pump, lol) but to say “I want to buy a bundle of firewood.” 🤪 I don’t even know if that makes sense. The struggle is real!

Anyways, here are some photos and sleep-deprived thoughts!

We Made That and Family Valentine’s Day Celebrations

Jimmy is a co-owner of his family’s steel fabrication business. He has been blessed to do work all over the Pittsburgh area: the zoo, parking garages, residential railings, elevators, gates, stairways, water slides, and more. Everywhere we drive he can be heard saying “We made that” as he points at a cable railing or steel column in a parking garage.

This week, we took the kids to Sarris Candies for a little treat night! We wandered around the candy store and sat down to enjoy our chocolate when Jimmy pointed at the railing in the store and said “We made that.”
