Here's a peek at the weekend.....
Polka dancing with Mr. Upcyclist and lil O. We all go to bed so early that we literally were home from polka dancing by 8:30pm and were exhausted. Our family loves to dance. Did you know Mr. Upcyclist and I met salsa dancing? Sounds steamy, no?

Oh. I. Loved. This. Holiday. Weekend.
Grateful and happy,
