- We went up to The Lodge at Blue Sky and had the privilege of listening to astronaut Terry Virts. We enjoyed hearing about his many adventures in space. The boys are excited to read his book. We also watched the meteor showers. Blue Sky is such a cool place.
- We had a wind storm and one of our peach trees split in half. This year’s peaches are almost ripe so we will pick them soon, but we will have to get rid of the tree and plant a new one. Big bummer.
- Well, the summer is over. Caleb is officially a junior high student. We are also busy with football every night. The boys have their first game on Saturday.
- New water bottles. Great for back to school or sports.

I had to tell you that I look forward to your post every Thursday!
Thank you for sharing !
I am so glad you enjoy our posts. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. Have a great Thursday!
I love your receipes. I have started making food from your receipes. My kids love the food they can’t wait to see what I am going to make next. I love the way they are so easy to make and the right amount of ingredients it’s so perfect. I have even made receipes for my friends and have lunches which my friends saying how delicious the food is.
My children took food to school and shared with his friend who asked for the receipe so his mum would make it for him.
I look forward to Thursdays.
This makes me so happy! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for sharing The Lodge at Blue Sky, we are looking for a new place to visit. I can’t wait to check it out. Also, congrats on your cookbook. I will be the first to pre-order. I LOVE your cookies!
You have to visit, the resort is amazing!! Thank you so much!!
Gah! That wind storm tore a big branch off of our peach tree, too! I went out to water the tomatoes yesterday morning and it was lying on the ground. That’s going to suck if it kills the tree.
Oh no!! Big bummer!
Cant believe Caleb is in junior high. I remember when you were pregnant with him. Boy ,time sure flies by. Your chocolate zucchini bread is the best! Your Dads cinnamon rolls are my favorite.
Thanks for following along. Time is flying! Those are two of my favorite recipes too:)
We don’t go back to school in Manitoba till after September long weekend. Fall begins September 23 so we are far away from the end of summer and 3 weeks away from the start of school. Please don’t rush our short summer away!
I wish our schools were like that. We start SO early!! I want more summer too!
Wow, Blue Sky is beautiful. So cool you got to see the meteor showers and meet an astronaut.
We had the best time! It is a beautiful resort!
