week 35 in pictures

sunday:012    after church, we went to dave’s company picnic, and from there, we went to the rehab center where my mom was staying (post hospital) for a visit. she requested some starbucks coffee and a slice of pecan pie from shari’s, so we brought them to her. there was a wheelchair in the room, and the kids (and dave) had fun ‘playing’ with it. isn’t my daughter sweet?

monday:013     in the evening, we went over to my parents’ house and did some organizing/cleaning. I brought our dinner and cooked it over there, but the pork chops were so thick that they took forever to broil. the kids played on grandma’s computer while they waited… and waited for dinner. I thought it was cute to see them all crammed into the chair together.

tuesday:003     after some back to school haircuts for layla and shane, we were over visiting at our neighbor’s house and shane started giving layla and micah rides in her wagon. at some point they thought it would be fun to give missy (her dog) a ride in the wagon too.

wednesday:003    first day of school! first day of school!

thursday:001     my 17 ears of corn.

friday:001     the beautiful bouquet of market flowers dave brought me for our anniversary. I love that he works so close to pike place!

saturday:

I have a picture for saturday, but I’m not posting it here, and I’m undecided about whether or not to print it and put it in the album. layla had a little scooter accident, and managed to remove a fair amount of skin from just below her right butt cheek. we took a picture of it, mainly just so we would have record of what it looked like fresh, in case it became infected or something. anyway, I didn’t think she’d appreciate it if I posted it.

the extras:2011-08-31     1, 2, and 3 are all from the picnic on sunday. 4 is layla getting her haircut w/ tina. 5 is our neighbor, susie, helping layla identify and label all of the leaves she collected and taped into a book.

  1. Were you able to eat all your corn or did you end up freezing any of it?

it’s friday again!!! and that means: layla, still sick, but enjoying some brady bunch episodes in the recliner, with a cat, and a… tent? no idea. this warms my heart! checking out our family history via project life… circa 2007. LOVE! what I spent my sunday evening tackling: done! thank goodness. micah’s “hooked”! hahaha! a quick visit to the library. dinner: meatloaf, green beans, and very pretty roasted potatoes. I got this awesome little bundle at the store that had yukon golds, red, and purple potatoes. purple potatoes are SO fun! I tossed them with some olive oil, salt and pepper, thyme, oregano, a little rosemary, and a bunch of garlic! so yummy. the meatloaf was good, too! operation: pick out cheesy, cheapo valentines. yes, I live in yuppy-ville. if you call 1-888-dog-waste, you can PAY someone to scoop your dog poop for you.I wonder if shane knows about this… empty peanut butter jar = very happy dog. yes, that’s my 5 year old, excitedly tromping in to preschool with...

2017–week 14

sunday: i had some professional development classes to take for work, so i was chained to the computer for a good chunk of the day. this was my companion as i worked. monday: very odd day. there was a threat of violence at the high school, so pretty much most of the student body stayed home. shane was among those lobbying for a day at home, so to ensure it wasn’t just a day of fun and leisure, i made him a lengthy to-do list to keep him occupied. i think it worked out very well. ;) also monday: when i got home from work, i took bonez on the longest walk ever, because it was such a nice day. this is some of the awesome spring color we saw on our walk. wednesday: i was making white chicken chili for soup supper at church, and was tossing my cans into this bag for recycling. i seem to have attracted the local wildlife. saturday: school’s out for spring break, which means it’s time for my traditional school break to-do list. i make one for every break, and usually don’t get that much o...

meal plan monday

monday: chicken caesar salads; bread tuesday: bruschetta chicken ; salad wednesday: french dips; chips; carrot sticks thursday: hamburger helper; green beans friday: pizza and assorted other junk/health foods (for layla’s birthday party) saturday: this is layla’s birthday, and she mentioned wanting ribs, but since sunday is shane’s birthday, and I’m pretty sure he’s going to say ribs as well, we will have to figure out which one gets the ribs on their birthday… we may go out the other day, depending on what the birthday people decide. sunday: whatever we don’t do on saturday. it’s still in the 80’s and 90’s this week, so I’m trying to avoid stuff that requires the oven to be one for an hour in the evenings, and nobody wants to eat soup when it’s hot out (well, I would, but nobody else).

monday: micah’s favorite food in the whole wide world… tuesday: his new favorite passtime… setting up soccer cones in ‘roads’ that he then ride through. thursday: earning their keep! actually, the just wanted to help me clean so I gave them rags and a bottle of windex. also thursday: at book club, ingrid telling her famous “making meatballs with the kids” story. friday: a sunny afternoon MOMS Club park playdate. micah got hungry and wanted to leave, so his friend was kind enough to offer him some of her lunch to keep him there a little while longer. also friday: layla at a pj party with the birthday girl. saturday: a dry, sunny saturday meant the first mow of the season followed by fertilizer application! just one skinny this week… micah was ‘on the ball’ at target. yes, that’s a plastic axe stuffed down the back of the shirt… pretty sure he’s a ninja. and some little squares I will collage to put in the book.           book shots:
