Fun Stuff

     I cleaned up some of the toys and organized them while trying to get a bin to turn into a compost bin. By so doing, I highlighted certain toys to Teddy. He loves vehicles, and we have quite a few.



    We are finally getting Henry some occupational therapy. His therapist noticed that Henry had problems with his periphery. I took him to the optometrist and found out that he is farsighted. He had glasses now, and the doctor wants him to strengthen his weak eye. I ordered some patches, but for a day, he went full pirate. 


I had a hankering for sushi, so we made some. This time, I tried making Spam Musubi.




I took Teddy to the park. He went down this slide one time, and then he just wanted to tell me a story.


    Apparently, there is a secret clown at the high school who moves around the school. Lizzy finally saw him up on a ledge, and later, it was in her classroom. Who knows how long this has been going on or who moves it.


    We were invited to a get-together, and our neighbor dropped off a ton of potatoes, so I asked my friends for a good potato salad recipe. I love potato salad, but have never made a great one. I got a huge variety of salads, as you can imagine, but in the end, I went with one online. It was ok, but I'm still on the hunt for a good recipe. 
    It was a fun event, but it was surprising how much of the conversation Daniel and I carried. It felt a bit forced at times. The kids loved the smores. They had caramel-stuffed marshmallows! There was a surprise visitor, a garden snake. The kids killed it with the tetherball base and then cleared the remains with some shovels. That was exciting!



    At this point, we had been there for over an hour, and Devon was done. He is allergic to nearly everything outside here. He tries to avoid the great and small outdoors if he can. Poor thing.




We came home, and I had to capture these roses in our front yard; they were just so vibrant.


We had a blood moon, and I could not get a good picture, but you can see the color.
