I did debate not voting because it entailed dragging five tired kiddos out of the car into the heat to place my vote. However, since the girls have felt passionate about the debate surrounding Measure O (a measure that would keep supercenters out of our town), I was able to talk to them about the importance of taking time to vote. They also enjoyed watching the process of voting. A good experience even if we were a bit late to soccer practice.
As far as the peach goes I had picked a few the night before and shared them with some friends. We did enjoy fresh peaches for breakfast along with a basketful of blueberries from our plants. So Babe thought you would be happy to know that the harvest was successful! Thanks for all the yummy things to eat out there. Tomorrow we may even attempt a batch of blackberry jam. I think there just might be enough up on the hill!
We've saved a few peaches for you when you return.
We can't wait to have you home Eric. Kids miss you a ton, but I am pretty sure I miss you more! 2 days to go....
Look closely at the pictures below!
Also, this past Tuesday we had a surprise visitor in our backyard. A PEACOCK! Lizzy being Lizzy came within inches of touching it. Way too much excitement around here!
