Day at the Pond

 Thursday, we took a little shopping trip with the girls and stopped for some lunch.
 When we got home, we had this gorgeous sunset to enjoy!
 The LEAST enjoyable part of the day, and the whole trip, was when Rea stuck her hand in this rusty old metal animal trap of my dads...  She was quite traumatized, and we are so grateful that it didn't break any bones or worse yet snap her fingers off.  (sigh)  Thankfully tetanus shots are all up to date, she didn't even need a booster, and the next day she acted like it didn't even bother her!
 So the next day, on Friday, we spent the morning and early afternoon at Mandy's friend's parents' house for a cook out and swim time.
 This is my dream backyard.....


 The girls got up the courage to jump off the high dive together, and once they did that, you couldn't get them off!





 Once we got back to mom and dad's we canned peaches!!! Yay, I felt so domestic and house-wifey.  :)
Loved these cupcakes....  Food coloring gel for the cake batter AND frosting - great idea!
