Valentine Houses

Esmé came for lunch today, along with her dad, stepmom, and stepbrother. (Jahmal, Dowry, and Hyde.) Jahmal made the mac & cheese while the kids painted tiny birdhouses from Artist and Craftsman Supply, our local art supply store. 
Then they took off to see the giant troll, Ole Bolle, on exhibit at Nordic Northwest, and we had the house to ourselves again - it all lasting just long enough to wear us out just enough.
