77 Days of Summer: Day 58

After settling in to our hotel, we walked across the street to the Downtown Disney Marketplace to grab a bite to eat. We barely went past the first shops and it was already magical!!

77 Days of Summer: Day 55

Charlie gets most of the face time because Ginger is hardly ever still enough to take a picture! Most of the pictures I try to take of her are big blurs. I caught this one tonight while she was sitting on my pillow! :-)

Someone's been sitting in the fig tree and having a snack. Birds or Squirrels? What do you think?

July 17

77 Days of Summer: Day 44

We've finally had a few days of sunshine. Enough to dry the puddles in the back yard. There are still storms around the area, just not on top of our heads. They don't have to be in our backyard for us to hear them though. The one today was several miles away, but loud enough to drive Charlie into the bathroom. :-D

77 Days of Summer: Day 40

Our family came today! We have been waiting and WAITING! It felt like waiting for Christmas. When they finally got here, I forgot to take a picture in all the excitement.

July 12

77 Days of Summer: Day 39

It has been a rough week for the puppies. Storms every day have kept them in a constant state of stress. They haven't been playing or exercising at all. Poor babies!

July 11

77 Days of Summer: Day 38.5

77 / 2 = 38.5
I checked and double checked with a calculator.
Do you know what that means?
My summer is HALF over!!!!
:'-(

At least if I have to have this realization tonight, I got to do something super summery -
roasting marshmallows!

 

For the record - it is Jeremy's marshmallow that is on fire.
My dad taught me how to roast them right!

Evening July 10

77 Days of Summer: Day 38

Our fig tree is producing like crazy! This is the first year that we have harvested more than a handful and We have a bumper crop. There is plenty for us and the birds, so we don't mind sharing. :-D

July 10

77 Days of Summer: Day 37

I spent most of the day helping my Kaia with projects in preparation for the arrival of Terra Lynn, but I didn't get any pictures. Probably wouldn't be allowed to post them anyway since all the projects are top secret! ;-)

This evening Jeremy and I returned for the second time to a new coffee shop around the corner. The drinks are good and we love the atmosphere. They have some games scattered around on tables so we started playing mancala. (An instance where I am grudgingly appreciative of smart phones and the ability to google game rules on a whim) In addition to generally being fun to have a two player game to share, I finally found a game I can beat Jeremy at!! :-D

77 Days of Summer: Day 30

We did a ton of work in the yard today, of which I have no pictures. Instead, here is a little update on the bounty from our garden:

We are getting about two cups of cherry tomatoes daily, from just one plant. Unfortunately our romas seem to be done. The okra plant is getting in to full swing and we are freezing trays of slices about every other day. Today we harvested our first carrots, yea! Hope they taste good!
