Milling apples for apple sauce. What a sticky affair.

You are never too old to build castles in the sand.

There is a little vandal among us. Yes you heard it right. We discovered this morning that Miso has been devouring the tomatoes on the vine. Huge beautiful tomatoes simply gone, only a stem remaining. She is serving out her sentence in doggy jail (the kennel). After about a week we may grant her appeal for release but just now things are seeming bleak for her.

Making Tomato Sauce

Today the guys made tomato sauce, using tomatoes grown in the garden.

Happy Anniversary to us.
This past weekend we celebrated our
wedding anniversary. We took a trip into the
city and went on garden tours on Sunday.
On Saturday evening we went to Susumu Sushi Bar.
No I didn't eat the fish. It was great fun.

Yes it's true. Order of the Phoenix is finally here. It was GREAT! WE bought first showing tickets. At 9:30 pm the boys went and stood in line for the 12:01 AM showing on early Wednesday morning. I followed later. There were 4 open theaters and our was in the digital showing. Tons of kids dressed in robes, donning wands and excited to see the movie. While it was very packed our family had a great time. The kids were excited to be up way past bed times. I won't spoil it for you. Now we are on to waiting for the book release in less than ten days. What a waiting game...
