Harry and Emma make each other laugh, whether they're in the bathtub, daydreaming beneath the kitchen table, or playing peek-a-boo around the couch pillows (which I know are totally ugly...I am in search of cool fabric to slipcover them with). After only knowing each other for three months, they are already great pals, incredibly tuned in to one another's moods and ever watchful of each other's whereabouts.
At Camp Mu Ji Gae, a Korean culture camp, Emma greets her new friend, CJ. We enjoyed watching the drummers (below) and the bulgogi was fantastic.
Harry played soccer with a bunch of other kids...no pictures because they were running around too much. He was by years the youngest in the group, but each and every other player took the time to make him feel included and welcome. We all enjoyed Family Day at camp, and next year I think we will sign the kids up for the workshops.
My hydrangeas are in bloom and they are spectacular this year. I took a chance two years ago at the Farmer's Market and bought a stick that was devoid of leaves for $1.50, with the promise that it would grow into a hydrangea bush. The gentleman selling the sticks was not fibbing, and the stick from two years ago has grown into a six foot high, five foot wide bush with more than 50 blossoms. These pictures were from my first bouquet of the season, and I am now on my third set of bouquets. The blossoms just keep coming!
Last week Brendan was on vacation. We stayed home and did a few things around the house, but one night we had an evening out, just the two of us. We ate dinner at the new Mexican restaurant two towns over, which was absolutely divine and made extra-special by the man serenading us with song and guitar. After dinner we headed up to the Lake and were treated to a lovely sunset while we watched the steam boats come in. We sometimes forget that we live in such a lovely area, that mere minutes from our doorstep we have beautiful mountains, rivers, lakes, and valleys to enjoy. After our evening out, we vowed to get out more and enjoy rich scenery that this area has to offer. The following photos are of our date night:
