Bouncy House (and Other Backyard Fun)!

In 1995, while attending Berklee College of Music, Derek lived in an apartment on the corner of the Riverway and Huntington Avenue in Boston. He lived with two of his childhood friends, Ricky & Keith, and met a bunch of cool people who lived in the same apartment building. Becky was one of those people, and this summer she decided to organize a "Riverway Reunion" in order to get as many of the folks from that time of their lives together with their families for a BBQ. Becky & Jay, along with their two little girls hosted everyone at their house this past Saturday.

One guy brought a bouncy house, which all the kids loved!

And a pool!






Becky caught me in a posture that my children and family know all too well :)

This was one of our last official vacation days - so sad to see it come to an end! It was a wonderful day to spend with friends!

One of the changes that came along with a new commute and work schedule is that I have started making dinner for the kids every night, instead of just Friday-Sunday (Julia, our wonderful long-time nanny, historically fed them dinner Monday-Thursday). Derek and I still have opposite work schedules, which means that I have the kids without him 5-6 nights/week. In order to make healthy meals AND pack lunches while flying solo, at a minimum I need to have a well-stocked fridge and basic menu plan for the week. Even better is when I can get some cooking and/or food prep done on Sunday. Before I go to the gym on Sunday mornings I usually peruse some recipes in search of culinary inspiration. Today I came across a recipe that caught my eye on Budget Bytes . I was planning on hitting Trader Joe's after the gym, so I picked up the frozen roasted corn that is the cornerstone of this recipe. The first part of my foo...

Silas, 7/26/17

The context for this post is that S&Z started two weeks of daily swimming lessons in the outdoor town pool on Monday. The beginning of this week also happened to start with two of the coldest days of the summer!
