Summertime

We had friends over last night for paninis.

Do you panini?

Seriously. Summer is all about paninis here. Yum.

And then we had pudding parfaits for dessert. Angel food cake, raspberries, strawberries and bananas, mini marshmallows, whipped cream and three flavors of pudding. It just doesn't get any more fun than parfaits.

Panini and parfaits.

We sure had fun and were out on the deck with the twinkle lights until 10:30 talking and laughing and picking through the fruity leftovers...

Love summertime.

    Raspberies, I'm inmpressed. Did you just come into sudden MONEY - they are so expensive fo far this year. We lost all our raspberry jelly during the storm when our freezer thawed everything so I have been looking at them but sort of waiting until I can get them at a roadside thingy a little cheaper. By the way, my blueberries are REALLY LATE this year. I can always remember when they usually are ripe because everyone that was here for your wedding was eating them. Not this year! They are just little green clumps so far.

Good morning, peeps. It's Friday. There's frost outside this morning. *FROST!* This week has been ridiculously chilly. I'm having mixed feelings about blogging lately.

And because I can't seem to think about anything to write about except Tejan. And because some of the thoughts I'm having are too private for the blog - or too repetitive. Or too unformed to turn into actual words you all could understand. So I'm struggling a bit. And yet, I'm committed to documenting the process I'm in. So I'll keep writing when the words come. And when they don't, like this morning, when I looked at that intimidating blinking cursor and my mind went blank and I started to break out in a cold sweat and began by talking about the weather... well, then, I'll just gracefully (or not so gracefully) back out of the room... tail between m...

Missoula Children's Theater

Last week Savannah and Ethan were both cast in their school's Missoula Children's Theater production of Red Riding Hood. Savannah was cast as Mother Hood and the Grandmother, and Ethan was Robin Hood - the Hood family's cousin from England. After five days of intense rehearsing, (four and a half hours every day after school) they were ready for two shows on Saturday afternoon. It was so fun for them. And fun for me, as I was one of two parent volunteers with the privilege of being at every rehearsal. I come from my own childhood experience of many opportunities with theater and musicals, so watching them experience the thrill of performing was awesome. It was an amazing week. I'm so glad they had the chance to do it. I loved that instead of having to commit to weeks and weeks of rehearsals, they just had to do this one really intense week. A full scale musical production without a month of rehearsing and I didn't have to sew any costumes! That's my kind of pla...
