Weekend

Make a wish!

Kenzie gives the thumbs up for the suggestion of going to get ice cream while out on the boat.

Quality

Do they make anything to last anymore?? I use this thing all the time and the dang thing broke this morning. Stupid plastic piece of junk.

Education Day with the Fisher Cats

Becca got to spend the day on a field trip today to see a Fisher Cats game. Fisher cats are the double A affiliate for the Toronto Blue Jays. Not all of her classmates got invited, it was only for kids who recieved Exceeds Expectations in Gym class for the first two marking periods of the year. She obviously takes after dad!

Unfortunately it was cold and rainy but they still played. The Fisher Cats played the Portland Seadogs which are the Red Sox affiliate. Becca refused to pose for a picture but here is her ticket!

NH as Kenzie sees it

Kenzie ate her poptart into the shape of NH this morning. I think she did a pretty good job, a much better job than I did taking a picture of it. It was before my morning cup of coffee so that is my excuse. I was thinking maybe I could auction it off on ebay.

Abandoned...No

Though it may appear I have abandoned my project 365, I have not. Last week was really busy and I had a case of the stomache flu for two of the days. I do have a weeks worth of pictures, actually more than a week at this point so here goes. There is no editing on any of these as I was more interested in just catching up the blog.

Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins.

Becca splashing around in the river.


Started planting my garden.

We set off some fireworks in the backyard in honor of memorial day.

A girl and her dog next to the campfire.

We did some grilling on the campfire. Steak strips that were so Good! How cute is Boomer??

Kenzie hanging out on the boat.

Not feeling so great.

Blossoms on one of my blueberry bushes!

My favorite wildflower-Lady slipper.

Relaxing

Took a nice cruise on the boat yesterday. The weather was a little cool. Lots of boats due to the Winni Derby.

Sad Night

The Bruins season came to an end last night, losing to Carolina in overtime 3-2. There's always next year.

Salt & Vinegar

Everyone's favorite chip is Salt and Vinegar. I'll eat any brand but the girls prefer pringles.

Recipes

I printed some new recipes to try off the internet. They are actually from a new show on Lifetime (or the chick channel as my husband likes to call it.) The show is called Cook Yourself Thin. The recipes sound good. I'll let you know if they actually are when I try them out!

Behind again

These are the plants that the girls brought home from school for me for Mother's day:


Toby and Kenzie. Toby loves having his belly scratched!

The lilacs are starting to bloom:

MMMMM...Cookies

I enjoy making cookies and homemade chocolate chip cookies right out of the oven are yummy!

Got Worms?

I do. Gonna experiment with them eating our kitchen scraps.

Getting Ready to Garden

A few books I've been browsing to get ready for planting.

Teacher Appreciation

We made up some baskets for the girls teacher for teacher appreciation this week.

Proud

Becca's progress report from school. She got exceeds expectations in every subject. I am a very proud mama.

Doc

This is Doc. He used to sit in my grandmother's flower garden for as long as I could remember. Now he sits in mine.

Hanging Out

Hanging out by the fire.

Yuck!

This is silly putty in the carpet in Becca's room! You'll have to visit my other blog to find out the amazingly easy way to get it out.

Swine Flu

All kinds of info coming in from the school on Swine Flu.
