Someone asked this question recently and you know I wasn't entirely sure how to answer it. I was a little worried that Blogger would not accept my sign in and that I would just hear a laughter sound track looping in the background - but nope - it let me in without any guilt or condemnation. Life has been busy, priorities shifted and in the
effort to keep my eyes from
permanently crossing I have been blog absent. I won't say that I am "officially back" or anything so
committed, but I will say that it is likely that I will be around more.....lots of things brewing here in our little world that I suspect I will want/need to share. For now here are a few pictures from our summer......
Of course summer would not be summer without Baseball - we were able to take in a Braves game - it was
Wonder Boy's first Major League game .......
and baseball and dogs.....well that's just like bacon and eggs don't you think ?
We have recently discovered the world of Flat Traveling - more on that later ;-) This is Flat Dylan, visiting from Westminster, MD helping us out during Herb Harvest here in Alabama.
You have to know that there were some
letterboxing adventures thrown in for good measure.......you never know what you'll see on these outings - huge metal chickens with circulating eyes,
Indian carvings in the forest - it's really
anybody's guess!
A big portion of our time this summer was spent in the garden - oh how we loved it and the fruits of our labors have been awesome. In this picture
Wonder Boy is showing off our very first harvest - one radish ;-)
And of course being
homeschoolers we had to get into some kind of off the wall project......our first batch of soap was overall a success, but there are a few things we need to work on.....good suds and smells great -
mmmm lavender
Tybee decided it was time to get back down to his fighting weight and took command of the
Wii Fit......he really is looking good don't you think ?
Every little boy dreams of growing up and becoming President right? Here The Principal, tries out a podium and a beautiful venue for size ;-)
And last but not least - Mama Leisha's Pizza Kitchen is now open for business - I did not take the summer off completely - after many failed attempts and nasty "Friday Night Pizzas" I finally tweaked a recipe to what we are now looking forward to each week - the herbs from our garden put it over the edge.
That concludes our tour of summer....thanks for hanging in and waiting on us.....please let me know if you are still out there and who knows - maybe I'll get my groove back sooner rather than later.
Learning as I go,
Leisha
The date stamp on the camera is wrong because Wonder Boy wasn't born until 2001 - but when I came across this picture today - I was instantly back on the porch where it was taken and I could smell the sweet rain on the flower with my little man......no wonder he stole my heart, sweet butterball cheeks and all.........
