Well, August finds us at a time of recollection and reflection. It has been an exceedingly trying year. But, Andrew and I spend a great deal of time counting our blessing. While I miss dad so very much, one of the most positive things that came out of it was a friendship with Dad's anesthesiologist. It isn't everyday that you go into the operating room, almost die, and come out with someone who is going to be a friend. But, such is the power of my dad. We went to go visit them this weekend, and had an excellent time! They have a trampoline! Zach and Ben had much fun!
Out in the garden, we've been having a blast. The tomatoes are coming in full force now. Every day we have another bowl to pick! I am dehydrating some of the tomatoes to use over the winter in lieu of tomato paste. The majority of the plum tomatoes are going to be frozen. And, we have eggplants this year!! Yeah us!!! Our beets and raab were a big fail. The watermelon plant looks lovely, but, nary a watermelon in sight.
Boys in the outdoors!
