7-2-11

WOW! Summer is flying by!!

We are soaking up the sunny days lounging by the pool, and enjoying the thunderstorms with quiet indoor days. Our chickens are growing big and strong and we should have eggs in the next few months. Our garden is in full bloom, and we are thinking of lots of new ways to use sugar snap peas, basil, cilantro, chives and dill, as well as a few little tomatoes. We are trying to figure out how to utilize the mass of tomatoes, brussels sprouts, peppers and beans we are going to be drowning in later this summer!

Here are a few pictures from the last few weeks


Strawberry picking at Carandale (OMG YUM)

At the theater to see Cars 2 (Charlie is in his own little booster seat! how cute is this!)

Spending time with cousins (second cousins? i never remember how that works)




and Tennis! Lily is signed up for several activities this summer. She's almost done with tennis and then we're on to soccer, art, and daycamps. Fun!

Charlie likes to help at tennis lessons.





This video is having problems. I'll stick it in here and fix it later.



Enjoy your summer!

  1. I just ate at the Green Owl, and they served a dill dal soup, if you need a non-potato based suggestion for using up dill! :)

    Charlie's getting so big!
