This is what August looks like! Dahlias are in bloom! The dill is in seeds.
We have figs ripening and baby caterpillars on the carrot leaves!
We are still picking tomatoes, peppers and peaches!
Sunflowers are smiling high in the sky!
Butterflies are loving the zinnias! The kids have sidewalk chalk on the driveway!
I roasted some tomatoes and served them with a side of pasta!
Walking out the garden for fresh flowers is wonderful! So many colors happening out there!
I took the kids school shopping and they had to FaceTime Hadassah to ask her opinion on shoes. I was sure we would be at Dicks for hours but they finally decided and we went for school supplies!
It was a fun afternoon!
Apparently we see how many balls we can store in the living room!
My friend Dave ... he's in a home after needing surgery. He was diagnosed with cancer and I swung by a road side stand for some flowers and a quick visit with him. I hope this brightens his day! Get well Dave!!!!
We appreciate our employees so much and a fun day at the park was wonderful!
Ashlyn finished up volleyball at LBC and is ready to begin high school practices soon!
We had leftover steak from employees day and Austin had this for supper three nights in a row! He loves it!!!!
We also bought the best Italian ice after a stop at Fashion Cents! I love their products and prices!
I had ice cream on my mind and the kids loved the ice!!!! Both were delicious!
We are still strolling the park for morning walks when the summer plans allow us to!!! It's such a pretty place to start the day!
Growing some big tomatoes!!!!!
The smoke alarm went off after some butter dropped on the bottom of my oven. I tried to remember the code and call off the engines but I wasn't fast enough. The firetruck came roaring to our house only to have me apologize and send them back to the station! I'm so glad it wasn't serious! I'm also happy to know our fire alarm indeed does work if ever we would actually have a fire.
Another fresh arrangement!
And another happy visit with Mommy D!!!!!
I grabbed some fall seeds and plants and got them in the garden!
And this happy boy is gonna spend a lot of time here at our house as volleyball coaching begins for his momma! He's so sweet!!!!!
It won't be long before school begins and our schedules got back to setting alarm clocks and waking up earlier! We are gonna enjoy these last summer days as long as we can!
