Week in Review

On Tuesday, we had a nice treat, and went out to a fancy lunch with Stace. Gotta take advantage of the girls being home and Stace working so near!

We went to a newish place called Slaters 50/50, where their burgers are half beef, half bacon. This restaurant does Kids Eat Free on Tuesdays, so that came in very handy!
Violet was fighting a cold the second half of the week, so we didn't do much of anything. 

Cora worked on her summer assignment for the Advanced Placement Environmental Science class she's taking in the fall, and her science-expert sister helped her out.
On Saturday night, Stace and I met Keith at a charity car show at the mall, where the funds benefit the high school district's foundation. There were some amazing cars!
We've had a definite down year with our garden. For one, we didn't plant a summer garden, as Stace is trying to get rid of the insidious weeds that are ALWAYS there. 
For another, our nectarine tree out front appears to be dying, and the squirrels or whatnot got whatever was growing. And lastly, the local wildlife got nearly every grape on our grapevine! Look at what I was able to "harvest" off the vine!
We got this lemon from a friend - ummmm - not such a helpful lemon!
