It has been busy around here. I cannot believe that it is already September (my favorite month). Here is what has been going on around here lately.
...planning our Hawaii trip
...a beautiful morning
...watching YouTube videos and eating something I have not had in a long long long time (it tasted good, but I didn't feel very good after)
...I got this drink at Roth's (I love the can)
...making Grandma's cheesecake for Jar's birthday
...making a huge breakfast for Jar's birthday
...snacks for the Solar Eclipse weekend
...Jar on his 18th birthday
...Jar's birthday dinner (seafood pasta Alfredo)
...Jar's birthday gifts and cards (Michael and I both made jeep cards). We also got him speakers for his jeep.
...Jar ordered these custom made Nike shoes
...Michael purchased these hazelnut snickers bars. We did not really like them...we gave them to Cam.
...watering the yard
...junk yard finds
...Cam bought this special Solar Eclipse dessert
...photos of the back yard
...she wanted lots of rubs on her head
...Lily would not eat this. It was just too large for her. Zena enjoyed it though.
...loved using these pens to write a card
...Roth's and McDonald's filling up at 8 a.m. on Solar Eclipse day
...Safeway parking lot completely full
...people even lining up by our park
...my Solar Eclipse pile
...Solar Eclipse time
...the Anniversary dinner I made for Michael and I
...we also watched Chesapeake Shores and Boss Baby for our anniversary
...I picked up some snacks for us that we have not had in a while
...I picked up some fresh peaches and made peach cobbler
...I threw a 70th birthday party for Mom. Michael and I decorated the day before.
...sweet potatoes with eggs on top for dinner
...got this in the mail
...our set-up for cutting Lily's hair (it has become downright awful)
BLT avocado wraps (sure not as good as a regular BLT)
...Jar and Michael finished Jar's stereo setup
...lunch for me
...I got this in the mail and was able to throw it away. This is my last year of homeschooling, and I already have the books for this year.
...Michael brought these home to me from work. The tomatoes are absolute heaven! I am going to make stuffed bell peppers with the peppers.
...I got my fall stuff out today. I only decorate these three shelves.
Other happenings around here:
- We gassed up all the vehicles in preparation for the Solar Eclipse swarm of people...which did not happen

- Jar opened his own bank account
- Cam and I watched Secondhand Lions
- We had problems with the internet and the cable (Michael diagnosed both, and we got them fixed)
- Michael and I ran errands to take stuff back to Best Buy, eat lunch at Wendy's, and pick up Mom's cake at Costco
- I made hatch chili burgers...they were delicious
- I made the best Costco meal...pork tenderloin on the grill, mac and cheese, and Caesar salad
