Kelley's first time frying green tomatoes |
First time picking RED tomatoes from the garden, also picked the first jalepenos of the year! |
First time without that big tree in front of the door! |
First time I called this a "petting zoo" at the Farmers Market |
First time buying in bulk this year? peaches and blueberries cheap to freeze will keep us in smoothies all winter long! |
First day of school! Yes they started july 7 |
Evil Genius lost her first big front tooth! Now she can't whistle. |
It has been a big week of firsts for us. We love the year round school schedule, they started back on Monday into 2nd and 4th grade. We got 2 big trees cut down from the front yard last week. Ironman build phase is in such heavy demand right now I have no time at all to post about it. Monday was also my birthday, I turned 39 for the first time (there will be others - I have issues), and I feel like I am absolutely destroying the really tough workouts this week. I also still have an unexpected race (ride) report to put up! Cheers!

Wow, going back to school in July would be hard! I guess as parents it's probably awesome though. I am sure my parents would have loved to have me out of their hair in the summers... Isn't it great to pick fresh veggies? I love having a garden; it's so rewarding. I am trying cucumbers and watermelon this year just for fun. The cucumbers are small but tasty; the watermelon has not done much yet...
Your ironman schedule is proof that marathons will be enough for me. I don't know how you do it and balance family life. Awesome job!
Dang, I can't imagine how busy you are with IM training + family stuff! I hope you had a great birthday! The produce all looks awesome. I can't believe the kids are back in school but I can see why you guys like the year round schedule. I actually think I would have liked that as a kid as I got pretty bored during the summers.
When my sons were younger, I loved the schedule. The breaks were short enough where they didn't forget everything!
