May...where ideals and reality meet.

Eventually, I will learn that blogging every day (even just the weekdays) for a month is NEVER going to happen for me.  It's not only a time-thing, but also an idea-thing.  I don't like forced writing...I did enough of that in school.  Even now I'm struggling to peck out a suitable introduction for all the pictures I'm about to show you in place of me actually having to write something worth reading!  So...I guess that does it - when in doubt, write about your doubts...?

Here's a glimpse of what we've been up to...while we haven't been blogging...

Grilled BBQ Bacon Pizza - a first for us...definitely NOT the last

Playing in the Kiddie Pool.

Learning how to pedal on the trike...

And having SO. MUCH. FUN.

Celebrating a friend's engagement!!

And helping plan their November wedding! 

Keeping a close eye on the enemy...

Cute in the front yard, enemies in the back...

Baking...lots of "from-scratch" stuff going on around here

Celebrating 8 years of marriage!

Playing at the fountains!

Taking LONG summer naps!

Cleaning the deck...

Staining the deck...

I had an anniversary post all planned out...in my head.  I want to post a photo from each year that we've been together just for reflection and fun -- but I have to find them.  I've started looking and I have 2 or 3...  The boxes of pictures/disks were on the kitchen counter for several days but then they got moved to the guest room where they are now collecting dust...I AM determined to get it done though, so stay tuned for THAT post. 

One other quick recipe to share...we've been enjoying the basil, chives, and parsley in our backyard and have been making all sorts of yummy things with them.  These Grilled Pork Chops with Basil-Garlic Rub were quite possibly THE. BEST. pork chops we have EVER had.  Yeah...they were THAT good.  C kept saying, "Thank you, Daddy, for grilling the pork chops for suppah!"  We'll be having these again this week!

Okay - that's all for now.  Hope to get that anniversary post up soon, and I have lots of other ideas coming up for June....now to find the time to post them all...

Yea...I was hoping to get to see a picture of the deck all stained - it looks nice. Love all the pics - C is so adorable and the one of Lucy keeping a close eye on the enemy is hilarious!!! :) Grilled pork chops recipe sounds yummy. They say using fresh herbs really makes a difference. Would enjoy seeing pics from your 8 years of marriage but don't expect me to reciprocate with 35 years worth from ours :) Love you much!
