1. Often visit The Oregon Cottage for gardening inspiration. Notice this post: “Incredible Ice Cream without a Machine”
2. Make it yourself:
Our personal review: It tastes like fudgecicles. We love it. I’d like to try making it without the sweetened condensed milk… maybe substitute honey instead? I’ll let you know if we ever try. For now, we think we should feed lots to Maggie… maybe then she’ll put on some weight. 🙂
I got my hair trimmed a couple weeks ago. It’s fairly short. Then last week, I had the terrifying task of cutting my sister’s hair right before a wedding. So glad she didn’t cry. Anyway, Anna got it into her head that she wanted a haircut too! Her hair was quite long, but the ends were a little thin, so we said ok.
It’s not 100% straight, but you can’t tell, because she has enough wave in her hair. She requested straight hair like Mommy, but I wasn’t able to pull that bit off. 🙂 She is happy, though!
This weekend, we headed out to the Oregon coast for a church campout. Our site was right next to a little hill by the bathroom and Anna did really well balancing on her bike as she went down the bottom half of the hill. She crashed her bike and I think her front tooth is slightly chipped today just before leaving. Poor thing!
We took our bikes to the beach:
The beach was loads of fun. We wonder when Jordan will be ready to enjoy the beach.:
Yummy camping fare:
We are outgrowing our tent:
So in love with this man:
The whole family, minus one. Happy at the beach. We are treasuring and enjoying our time left as a family of four:
hahaha
She is a lover of sand… oh my. She loves to rub it in her hair, squirm around on her belly and dump it on her head.
She is an absolute joy. Look at that mischievous look in her eye?
Riding bikes:
I love how she walks all that way with the sand to just throw it:
Can’t get enough of my girls. They are so precious!
Just some play at the ocean-side lakeshore:
