Our unbelievable weather continues...highs in the 70's, sunny blue skies.... weird!
The farm was a whirlwind of excitement this weekend...
lots of comings and goings...

Saturday's highlight was a family cookout.
Amanda made bruschetta orzo salad.
I baked a cake... lemon coconut.... might be our favorite yet.
(I can post the recipe if you want.)
Tyler spent the day with us.
Saturday morning's rain gave us a chance to play trains...
Love these Brio trains...leftover from 27 years ago when Andy was a toddler.
By noon, the sun came out and we picked (and ate) blueberries...
Fed Ritz crackers to the goats...
We packed about as much as we could into one day!
Sunday the farm served as the venue for a baby shower.
Anna, who often helps us out around the farm, is due in October...
a baby girl, Rebecca Lynn... named for Dr. Becky.
In my spare time this weekend,
I refinished this old desk...
and set up this vignette on our back porch.
The slate chalkboard came out of a Lancaster County one room schoolhouse.
We eat our meals out on our screened in porch all summer long,
so this little area will provide a little eye-appeal for our mealtimes.

Tyler got a kick out of watching how far the goats stick out their tongues for a Ritz!

How about you... did you do any fun things this past weekend?a
PS: I have something on my mind...
a little chicken insanity...
that I need to discuss with you.
Hopefully I will have a chance to write down my thoughts this week.

I love salmon. When I lived in Santa Cruz, we would buy it fresh off the boats in the harbor. And I also love lemon coconut cake so I'd appreciate the recipe.
We also had a nice weekend but not quite so packed with activity as yours.
Loved seeing the photos of your grandson feeding the animals the Ritz. So cute. Shower looked lovely.
And the desk!!! LOVE it!!!
Have a great week!!
