He's been spending quite a lot of time reading about deserts and desert animals.  Here are some of our favorite books:

Friday Favorites: The First Week of October

Image
 Despite having to cancel our weekend plans last weekend (my husband and I were going to spent 3 days in Vermont) we still had a great week!  We're hoping to squeeze in one last trip up north before winter but we'll see... Our calendar is filling up fast.  We turned our attention to some home improvement projects instead and enjoyed some really wonderful fall weather this week. Friday afternoon Evan and I headed out hiking with our hiking group; we had 4 families show up! This was the largest group hike we've had since the pandemic started and it was nice to see some new faces.  It was such a beautiful day for a hike too. Before taking Alec to karate on Saturday, my husband and I headed to Lowe's to pick out a new sink faucet and some new shower faucets.  I was so excited to tackle this mini master bath update... but it really turned into a PROJECT by the end of the weekend and we still don't have everything together yet.  I am loving the new faucets and having 2 sh

Friday Favorites: Fabulous Fall

Image
 We enjoyed a fabulous week of fall! The weather was perfect, the kids were happy (even when I took their annual photos!), we ate lots of yummy treats.. what could be better? We had beautiful hiking weather this week!  We led a hike through Pulaski state park on Friday.  Evan was the only one able to come with me and we had a good time.  One new family showed up and I recognized the girl as someone who went to the same high school as me.  We had a fun time catching up.  Alec, Evan and I went hiking on Monday at Mashamoquet. Evan and I went hiking at the state park on Wednesday.  Then Evan and I finished up our week hiking at the Dam Though we had to turn around after 30 minutes since the bridge was washed out. Alec brought home some delicious treats on Friday; including this apple tart he made!  Alec didn't have karate on Saturday so we spent most of our day baking.  He made apple pie cookies while I whipped up a batch of pumpkin scones (I shared this recipe earlier this week ).

Friday Favorites: Wrapping Up September

Image
We had a pretty quiet week at home.  I hardly took any photos at all.  Our weather has turned quite chilly these past two days with highs in the low 60's.  I don't mind when we have such beautiful, clear skies to go with it though.  I managed to sit in the sun a few time mid- day and soak up some sun but I definitely think my days are numbered unless I want to start bundling up soon. I pulled out an old package of Color Street nail wraps and am LOVING this color/pattern for fall!  The younger boys and I went on hike Wednesday.  Alec had the day off from school for professional development and we went up to Moore State park.   We cooked up some yummy food this week including this sausage/ tortellini soup and some banana chocolate chip bread (recipe coming in October!) for my husband and oldest son. I have used grocery pick up three times in the last two weeks and I am loving it!  Things have just been so busy here and being able to order online and pick up in minutes has helped
