Hey, Roomie!

We have a new roommate!  Brandon's brother, Caleb, is working in Iowa City this summer.  He had been house-sitting for some friends of ours who had been out of town since May.  Well, yesterday they came home!  Which meant Caleb was in need of a new place to stay for his last few weeks in Iowa.  Unfortunately, our guest room is now a nursery.

And so - our living room has been temporarily transformed into a guest room!  It's cozy, but it works  :)

Brandon is pretty excited because he has convinced Caleb to bike into work with him each day, and he has a built-in workout buddy in the mornings.  I'm excited because live-in brother-in-law = free babysitter, right?!

Biking to work in the summer sounds fun, right?  Well Brandon bikes to work year-round!  Sun, rain, snow - he's been through it all.  He recently got a new bike that's better suited to this kind of all-weather riding.  It's called a Karate Monkey...which sounds pretty awesome to me!  Even though I'm not good at letting him know it (and I bake sweet treats more often than he'd like), I am so glad that Brandon prioritizes healthy eating and an active life-style.  Our family is healthier because of it.
