A Creekside View.
A Boy and his Pup.
A Gnome or Fairy hole. I am really not sure which one it is yet. Will have to do some investigation to know for sure.
The kids (with their friend) drawing under a tree on a beautiful early evening.
Sometimes kids fall asleep in the most uncomfortable places. But, as long as Ben has his very loved blankie cow with him, he is just fine. ----- So another weekend begins. Lots planned already including a family wedding and dog training. I love that it's really starting to feel like fall already. Trying a whole lot of new recipes around here lately (might have something to do with two new cookbooks that I've bought (Everyday Paleo Family Cookbook and Practical Paleo). I know there are tons of recipes online, but there is just something about having the actual book in your hands. The kids love flipping threw them and picking stuff out to try as well. They have also been helping with preparing some things so that has been (a bit more messy). So successful new stuff has been: Pumpkin Pancakes (biggest hit), Tuna Patties (with a lemon garlic aoli sauce (another super favorite), Broc/Cauli Chowder w/ bacon (parent favorite, not so much with the kids), Smoky Bacon Wrapped Chicken Thighs (also a winner!). Oh yeah, and Pumpkin Custard was great too! My coffee is gone and I have a list ten miles long to accomplish this am so I better get a move on. Sounds like a heard of elephants got loose (puppy one and puppy two). Have a beautiful day!
