365: Day 62- Sunday Supper


3/3/13: Master Chef Silas checking out our dinner progress.

We had a fun and busy Sunday. This morning we headed to Josie & Theo's house for a playdate. As things wound down Tim read the kids a story.


And when it was time to leave S&Z staged a sit-in.


We headed home for a much-needed nap, and then my co-worker Lina came over for dinner. The 4 of us made soup; I think it was probably Lina's first time cooking with two small children "helping". She was so nice to offer to take a few pictures :)


While the soup simmered the kids convinced her to play ball.


I love Sunday night supper. It's an excuse to set an extra pretty table and eat great food together. Derek often works so I've started inviting friends over to join us. Last week Rhiannon came over for Moroccan Chickpea Soup and leftover birthday cake. Tonight Lina and I made Chicken Barley Soup. Eating a nice dinner with friends also helps me reinforce good table manners with the kids. 


Happy eating!

Silas' Blog

Well it's been a busy 3 years since I last posted! Stay tuned as we may have more posts coming now that it looks like I have a new contributor... Silas recently read a book called "Starting Your Own Blog", and now he is bound and determined for us to let him start his own blog! We convinced him that he should start out by drafting content and a posting calendar. We made templates this morning and he wrote his first "post" today!

Summer Nights

As we hit the end of July we are relishing the relaxed summer nights around here. Walks to the corner store after work- Kitten snoozes in the window- Playing outside after dinner- And after dinner bike rides in the park aplenty. The best part is when they ride down the "big hill" out of the woods and we make the loop home. These are the days.

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!
