Cooking
Making Mexican Chicken tonight for supper. This
recipe has been served at every Thanksgiving for as long as I can remember in
my family. Don’t ask why because I’m not sure what it has to do with turkey and
ham, but I do know that it’s delicious!
Reading
I finished a great romance book last night…think
Jane Austen…called Edenbrooke. The
author’s second novel is coming out this summer and I can’t wait. Great writing
and no sex scenes, just a good ol’ fashioned love story.
Listening
To Franklin
and Bash playing in the background. Summer TV shows have started up, and I’m
excited. Some of my favorite TV shows only have summer series (Rizzoli and Isles, Covert Affairs) Any summer TV series that are your favorites?
Thinking
About what I need to finish around the house
tonight. Folding laundry and our 30 minute family clean up being the two big
ones.
Planning
Vacation Bible School. I haven’t even started
getting ready and we start next Monday! Our theme is fun (county fair), our
topic is great (fruits of the Spirit), but I’m stalled with being overwhelmed
at all I want and need to do. Every year I swear that I’ll give myself a month
to prep for VBS, but then I never do. Ugh.
Pinning
Feel free to follow me on Pinterest using the
button in the sidebar. I wanted to share some of my favorite finds this past
week:
Homeschool: I’m planning on studying Botany next
year with the girls for one semester and I found this fun demonstration of how
plants grow toward light. I know that they will love this one!
Home: I found these cute truck pictures that you
make out of your child’s foot print. Monkey would adore these in his room since
he’s into all things with wheels. I might have to make them soon before his
foot gets too big for the smaller canvas!
Cooking: The recipe I’m most excited to try this
week is found here. It looks so light and delicious. Perfect for summer time
Italian food.
Loving
Our local farmer’s market. I botched our garden
again this year so I’m trying for round two after our summer trip back home. In
the mean time, however, the people in our little town grow some delicious
vegetables with great prices!
Remembering
My high school graduating class. This past week
one of my high school classmates began uploading yearbook pictures onto her
Facebook page which started a huge walk down memory lane for some of us. It
made me remember how much fun high school was for the most part and how much I
wish I had appreciated it while it was happening. I’m the fabulous looking one
with bangs on the far right side of the photo, fourth row up. J
Looking forward to a new week of productivity,
loving, learning, laughing and cooking in the tree house,
Chelli
