10 pictures on the 10th day of the month!
{Document a snapshot of your life & find beauty among the ordinary things in your day!}

Enjoying some coffee outside by the pool & by myself because both girls slept in today until 9:30!
Someone's finally up & ready for breakfast!
Sunflowers make me happy.
Bike ride to swim lessons:
Both girls are becoming great little swimmers & pool safe. Such a relief!
My lunch after swimming. When I am pregnant I crave steak like no one's business. Tri-Tip sandwich with BBQ sauce & sharp cheddar cheese. So good. And, watermelon, of course.
Our neighbors got flocked last night, the girls thought it was hysterical.
Taking a break from the pool (over 100 degrees today!) & having some otter pops!
Blue Otter Pops > any other flavor.
Dinner for tonight. I made my yummy lasagna (which I need to blog!) I used fresh basil & oregano from my garden.
I was being adventurous & I used zucchini from our garden instead of noodles.
Hope it tastes okay, it's in the oven now & smells delicious!
**Edited at 9:00 pm....The zucchini lasagna was AMAZING!!! Recipe coming soon!***

Linking up here:
ten on ten button

We are headed back in the pool to cool off while dinner finishes cooking.... it was a hot one today.
(and cooking something in my oven is making my house even hotter!)

Hope you had a great 10th!

  7. I have the same mug! (Except with an H...) Our youth group used to flock people. I totally forgot about that until now.

  8. What a fun idea to "flock" your neighbors/ friends. I may have to start this in our little area :)

  13. I craved steak with EmmyKate. I have heard that it is because your body is low on iron and it is telling you that you need it.

  14. i am so glad you like the blue otter pops. because that means more red and pink for me.

  17. Ashlyn's school flocks for a fundraiser and it's my favorite one all year.

    Not a fan of otter pops because the plastic cuts the inside of my cheeks. Am I the only weirdo that this happens to?

    And I want that sandwich. And I have no good excuse.

  18. I have crazy sleepers too...hope the cough is better. I really need to get one of those mugs because I am in love...yay for getting some quiet time. Look at your girls doing well with their swimming...that's awesome. I want a bite of your sandwich...just sayin. The blue IS the best :)
