Peach Paradise, Mel's B-day and first day of school

I just read an email from my sister-in-law asking for updates. Yes, I felt guilty that blogging has fallen by the wayside. But let's just throw some sympathies my way--i have a high schooler now. it's a whole new world and i am still adjusting. Jonah has his own calendar on the fridge so that we can keep track of marching band practices, performances and competitions. I like to stay on the fun side of busy--not the crazy side, thank you. So blogging has moved aside for lots of other good things: Melanie, the coolest sister in existence, got to live with me this summer. so fun. she is now teaching in Boise. We celebrated her birthday at the end of August with peach explosion: peaches on waffles for breakfast (don't forget the whip cream on top).





fresh peach pies. yummo



and of course, the always popular:


PEACH CARAMEL CRUMBLE


yes--it tastes as delicious as it sounds.


sock monkey is not doubling as a peach--he just likes it that Melanie has always wanted one and he arrived just in time for her birthday present. So things are just peachy!



First day of school.



6:40 really is just too early for an ETD. sigh




Kamster--growing up way too fast. she loves preschool.


hope that will suffice for awhile. maybe in another five months...
