I've been wanting to put up some blueberries this summer so I can enjoy them all winter long all baked up in warm blueberry muffins. I started out ambitious...I'll go pick blueberries at the orchard with my sister and her kids and it will be an enjoyable experience for all. Then it rained for 40 days straight. New plan...I'll go pick blueberries at a nearby farm by myself and get them finished up in one day. Then it got really really hot and I lost motivation. Realistic plan...go to the air-conditioned grocery store where they have pre-picked 5lb boxes of blueberries all ready to go. Excellent plan! :)
Another Christmas has come and gone...why does it always go so fast?!?!? I was grateful to be off this Christmas so I could enjoy the day with my family. I kicked off the morning with my parents and a delicious pan of caramel french toast! YUM!!! Then, the rest of the family arrived and we enjoyed a feast of food before diving into all the presents that were under the tree. The kids were lots of fun to watch as the opened all their gifts...here are a few snapshots of the chaos fun... Cooper being his usual ornery self Lily Ann and her Mama Lily Ann and Ruthie opening presents Cooper is really getting into this present thing! Lily got a barbie! Luke was so funny...he opened one gift and then played with it for 30 minutes before returning to open another... I think he was saying, "Oh WOW!" in response to a toy that made noises...and then he would grab his cheeks in disbelief! :) It was hilarious! Cooper like...
Funny!:)
