weekending

these few scenes from the weekend about some it up.

it was a quintessential summer weekend.

we opened up all the windows and doors, and spent all day saturday in the yard planting and playing.

planting flowers and herbs and playing with kapuchi.

we aimed to tire her out before taking her home to her empty house.

we succeeded.

lily was tired too.

she confessed that she's a tried and true cat person at heart.

that while she loves dogs, they're a lot of work.

yes, even the adorable 4 pound versions.

sunday morning we ventured to the softball field for a game.

kapuchi almost stole the show, but it's really hard to compete with a game-ending triple play that involved our first base woman.

it was a beautiful morning for a victory.

mike harvested some peppers from his father's day plants and made a very fresh salsa.

both saturday and sunday he grilled and i prepared simple sides.

the caprese tortellini tasted exactly like summer.

ted and his buddy even took seconds.

he spent the bulk of his time at his happy place.

ted worked at the golf course and played on the golf course.

this was the kind of weekend that i would like more of in the coming months.

please.

thank you.
