Caffeinated Randomness

....F.R.I.D.A.Y....
We've had so much rain this summer, my garden is a jungle.
Yesterday was the first I was able to work in it this week. Most of the day I spent weeding, tilling and harvesting.
This is what we found.

Plus a few enormous cucumbers, zucchini and yellow squash.
The boys enjoyed boasting their tremendous strength by cracking them over their heads.

Ah yes, the joy of extra large produce.
!Silly Boys!

I can't believe my baby is one.

She is such a little pumpkin.
.Love her.

How can summer be almost over. I'm not ready for fall yet. Do you remember being a kid and the summer taking forever?
Why isn't it like that anymore?

I really need to decide on our school material and get it ordered. Then I need to pick a start date. I'm not ready for that yet either. Anyone else homeschooling? I'm indecisive on our English program. What do you use?

Did I ever tell you I took my kids to the zoo, two hours away, and forgot shoes for my 3 year old?
Yip I did. They didn't sell shoes at the gift shop either.

So we made due with socks. Red snake socks and a pink outfit.
.Beautiful.

That same week, I was in a store in town and the baby exploded all over my arm. I didn't have extra clothes for her. We were headed to swimming lessons after the store.
.Lovely.

I really like raw yellow squash and zucchini. They go especially well with ranch dip or garden fresh salsa.
.YUM.

Last night for dinner we had all day baked bacon beans, fresh salsa, corn chips, fresh produce and watermelon. It doesn't get much better than that!

Did you see the pineapple in my garden picture. I said it was a jungle. Just kidding, I'm not growing pineapple, just seeing how awake you are :)

Have a terrific Friday!
