yummy

Daddy was at work and Cayden and I were home together; we tried out some yummy things in the kitchen!

 Our fresh fruit smoothies were delicious! 

Actually, he now requests one everyday

We also made pizza!  All from scratch! 

Cayden helped measure ingredients for the dough, and we collected fresh basil from our garden.

Yum-O

Home-made tomato, basil pizza for dinner

DUCKS

We took Cayden to go feed Ducks for the first time. 

I don't know why we waited so long! 

He had a blast!  Plus it was free and close to home  :)

 Getting started on our bowl of duck food

 The ducks literally came from around the corner and lined up for food! 

Homemade ICE CREAM

 Well, Cayden and I made a new recipe.  

Banana Ice Cream

Ingredients:  Banana

That's all!  Cayden loved it.  Looks just like real ice cream but tastes like banana! 

The perfect Summer 'Treat' that is healthy for any time of day!  

Family Camping

At the beginning of June we joined Nana, Papa, Uncle Chris and Uncle Bryan for a fun camping trip at Lake Don Pedro. 

Cayden had a blast! 

 The weather was a bit windy, so we spent a lot of time relaxing and playing around the campsite.

 Just bein' boys; playing in the dirt

 The biggest hit for Cayden was looking for BUGS!

Can you believe we actually had a hard time finding any?

 Finally cought one!

 Rockin' out and dancing

 Taking a fun ride in Papa's boat

He changed so much!

Hot Summer Day

 Enjoying a hot summer day!

Popsicle and a dip in the pool

 We found green-beans growing in our garden!

We also got to try out our first ripe strawberry!

Backyard

One of the down-sides of a new home is having no landscaping.

With Cayden being much more active and his sister on the way; we were finally motivated to finish the back. 

 First was the planter box

 The boys laying stones and  bark

 Cayden loved being out back and helping Daddy!

 Staining the trim.

And finally time for plants!

John's

We all had a fun time at John's Incredible Pizza for Papa's Birthday! 

Cayden had a blast playing with the games (even without tokens ) 

 :)

In the Kitchen

Cayden and I had a fun time making some yummy treats!

We made 'rice-krispie' treats but with cheerios and trix

 Measuring the ingredients (mostly) all by himself

 Spreading the gooey mixture in the pan

And Finally getting to try them. 

Cayden thought they were amazing!

Projects
