Where has summer gone? { August Menu}

Well, today is officially August 1.  My oldest starts school this month, and one can say summer is ending.  Where has it gone??  Better question- where are my blog posts that show what we did this summer??  I promise they are coming & I promise I will be better at this blogging thing once we get back into the school routine & I have a little more breathing time.  Some of what you have to look forward to:


  • Our experiences in geocaching
  • Our mini vacation in the Black Hills
  • the completed nursery! (it's almost done!)
  • Roll top desk makeover
  • some recipes-
  • Craftiness.  Yep.  I was crafting even without a stinkin craft room...
  • Basement progress...oh wait...there is none.  
Meanwhile- here is our August menu.  I realize I skipped July.  July was one big chaotic mess of a month & half the time I didn't know if I was coming or going.  So, therefore, no menu.  But, I'm back on top of things this month (even made it to the gym today- yeah me!) so here it is!
