Random Thoughts

 

Do you ever have one of those moments when life looks so beautiful all around you? Breakfast looked this way Saturday morning…so I told my kids I wanted to take a photo.

There were fresh peaches looking so peachy in the dough bowl, and cantaloupe too. The chocolate chip pancakes were still warm, and the milk was cold :) One of the best ways to start the weekend!

And the sunlight was streaming in. It’s hot outside! So, we’re thankful for air conditioning :)

These hydrangeas were supposed to turn white, however, they never did…they also just stopped growing prematurely, becoming mini-hydrangeas. So, I brought them inside to enjoy :)

Now, on the other hand, these strawberry hydrangeas never turned color…so, I brought them inside to enjoy. They grew extra big! I love hydrangeas. I was fortunate to have an abundance of blooms this year :)

P.S. I’m sorry my floor is messy ;)

Praise God, our hens are still laying eggs! We get about 5 a day. Eggs are so pretty to photograph. Why is that? And yes, that is my big toe in the bottom left corner of the photo below…I stood on the chair to get this shot :)

One more wonderful thing…I’ve cooked dinner at home the last two nights :) Do you enjoy cooking? Oh I do! And I made some pink lemonade to go with dinner.

Here is a photo of said lemonade:

As you can see, I’m just full of random thoughts!!

Oh, and I must tell you about the ALL NEW PERISCOPE…have you heard?

It’s a really cool app for videos. And I stepped out of my comfort zone today, and made a video of a quick tour of our home. Come join me at PERISCOPE and follow along @bucketsofburlap :)
