This Week In Pictures

Move Over Emeril

Over the weekend, my mother in-law made ceviche...it is amazing. Abby was hell bent on "cooking" and being a part of the action. The problem was that she wanted to taste the raw fish SO badly. We put the fear of...well, raw fish in her and told her to stay clear of it...my MIL told her it was dangerous even. We were able to convince the Abster that slicing strawberries was the next best thing.

However when we tried to encourage the eating of strawberries, she informed us that no, she would not...because they were dangerous.

The good news is she got over that and even was able to help with the ceviche as wanted.

Paige in 'TAH

While I have regular Pitty Parties about not being a part of the "Tah" gang...Paige is having a wonderful time out there. On Monday, the went hiking...to snow:

(I acually have no idea where they are, though.)

And then went four-wheeling all over the place:

I'm still trying not to be jealous of my almost 8 year old. Okay, that's a lie...I'd give my left arm to have her skin, but whatever.

4th of July

Abby, Alonso and I spent a nice 4th with family and then with friends. In our usual fashion, we split our time between the two. Alonso and Abby swam while I "chilled" at Alonso's aunt and uncle's house and then we headed over to my friend Pam's house where I seemed to lazily go from chair to chair to chair...not giving a hoot that I was being such a...lounger? That doesn't seem to be the right word...

I guess I figure I'm kinda "blah" this week...and really, the pictures say it better than I do. And let's be honest...I was the photographer in most of these...that's not saying a whole lot for my blogging abilities. Shame.
