Summer flew by!

Once again, my attempt at blogging has failed...

The CSA is been great! I've tried A LOT of new foods and have learned that I actually DO in fact like veggies. :) Here are a few pictures of what we've had.


If it looks like a lot of green, it is. Early in the summer season there are a lot of leafy greens, now we get lots of squash and cucumbers. I still haven't found a way to cook them so that I like them. Still searching for recipes, if you have any, SEND THEM MY WAY!

It's hard to believe that summer is over. It was absolutely incredible! In May, Brandon was commissioned as an ordained elder in the UMC (aka he's officially "REV. Blacksten"). June was full of mission trips with the church. We took the seniors to ALASKA!!!! And the 9-12th to NOLA. July was full of youth events and a quick trip to Oklahoma for a friends wedding. OH! And our 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY! I can't believe it's already been a year! We went to a B&B in Tulsa called "Cedar Rock Inn." Google it. It's adorable! August 1st meant back to school! Anywho, that's enough for now. I'll close with some pics from Alaska!

Mendenhall Glacier
The water was insanely cold! It was hard to walk back through 2 feet of water. Thought we might have to amputate!
Me and two of my coworkers.
Sea lions!
Just about every picture I took could be a postcard!
It is possibly the most beautiful place I've ever seen.
Bears!!
Our group
Icy Straight Point - another postcard photo
WHALES!!
Whale tale :)
And no joke, eagles were EVERYWHERE!

Oh, we also started making corn hole boards back in May. They're almost finished!


Ok. I'm done. Maybe I'll start updating this more often. We shall see. :)
