Avila Barn

My 3 sons...so cute. Weston loved the animals at Avila Valley Barn today. He talks really loud and points and smiles. He is changing so fast these days. The summer is flying by it seems and I'm getting excited for school to start! I love shopping for school supplies and we found a great deal on books from a school that closed, I think we got about 50 books for $6.00!

invention

I love it when the boys come up with an invention. The other night they went into their room with some masking tape and my broom and they came out with this extendo-grabber. They used it to get West's hat that he had thrown over the neighbors fence.

A simple pleasure

Yay, my tomatoes are starting to turn red! I'm so excited. I'm sure in a couple of months I'll be sick of tomatoes but for now I'm enjoying it. I've loved watching our little plants grow. We've had a few zucchini already and lettuce and green peppers. Its amazing really to look at the plants at night then the next morning seeing growth...overnight change!

goofballs

This is where I found the boys this morning...on the couch all snuggled together and cracking up at one another. Soooooo (not) glad that Jack and Caleb taught West how to stick his finger in his nose!

Joyous

New favorite game...hiding behind my bedroom curtains and being found and tickled. So cute especially the squealing laughter!

bread

Today I made my 3rd loaf of bread, it looks so nice to me. Two loaves of Hearth Bread earlier this week and today a loaf of Heart of Wheat bread. Even the names sound good don't they? I love freshly baked bread, I used to make it a lot but got out of the habit. Since summer is here and I have some free time on my hands (Jack and Caleb are at VBS this week) I decided to break out the Bread Bible and start baking. Next I think I'll try the cinnamon raisin bread.
