Supper

This summer we have a crop share agreement at Great Country Farms.  I am loving the uber fresh food!  It is always so delicious. This week's bounty included green beans, garlic and blackberries.  The kids and I picked the blackberries ourselves...two days in a row. Yum!  (Also featured in this meal were tomatoes and basil grown by one of our neighbors.)

Rockets

Me to Oskar: "Oh, guess what?! I just got an e-mail with an invitation to Matthew's party."
Oskar: "Yes!  He's going to watch 'Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters."
Me: "Actually he's going to launch rockets into space, well, not space."
Oskar: "Yeah, into the air, not space.  Liquid fuel or air pressure?"

Seriously?! And here I was so pleased for catching myself on the "space" thing.   

Silent Storm

The other day we saw a silent lightning storm blow by.  It was amazing. I kept trying to catch one of the lightning strikes and was excited when I looked at my photos and saw that I did manage to capture one. It was so weird to see the clouds lighting up and lots of lightning but not a sound.
