Sweet Smells of Rhubarb

Last night Dad got in the kitchen and wanted to make some small rhubarb pies. So he conned me into making the pastry and we made these cute little pies. Boy, did the house smell good. So, I have this handy little cutter that cuts and seals the pastry and does a marvelous job. Some of the pies he sprinkled brown sugar on top and others just white sugar. Dad took a container of pies to work this morning so I only have a few left - - just for me~ It was a fun, late-night activity and they were yummy. The cooked rhubarb that was left we put into a pie pan and froze for a pie later on.

Baby Finn with Nana

My Visit with Finn

I spent a week at Andy's helping her and getting acquainted with Finley Reese. Mercer has taken on the roll as watch-keeper, binky-getter, diaper-fetcher, and whatever is needed he will do. This was his watch-keeper time and he did it very well. As soon as Finn squirms just a little on the baby moniter, Mercer is right there to check him out. What a great big brother !!

All the Better to See You

Mercer looks good doesn't he. These are actually Andy's older glasses and he just thought he should wear them all day. I'm not sure how "good" they were but he sure had fun with them. I called him "Potter".

One Fine Afternoon for Fun

It was a sunny afternoon and Kristi and Logan came over to hang out with us. This was Logan's first time down a slide and I think he really had fun with it. Kris put him on it several times and held his hands while he slid down. Mercer had his friend, Jessie, over but Andy's picture of them was better than mine and it's on her blog if you want to see it.

One Big Yawn

Anyway, here we are - all three of us. This is the morning that I left to come home.

A New Sound

This is an organ that Erin just inherited and she is storing at our house until she gets room for it. That only means that I get to play it once in awhile too. So, my organ is now in the family room and I suppose we could actually do an organ duet if we wanted.
