So hot!
I have boycotted going outside {unless it's to & from the car}. after this weekend I cannot take the heat. It's been in the upper 90's! This weekend~ we had some blueberry pickin' going on, birthday parties{my dad & Bryce's buddy Walter}, & went on a trip up to the Georgia Moutain Fair. I had never been to that fair before. I just love driving through the Blue Ridge mountains. They are the oldest mountain range in the US...Paul says the world, but I need to check that I think =)
Bryce loves hotdogs with ketchup & mustard. He started to eat them with mustard after he had them at pre-k. I have never liked ketchup nor mustard, thank you very much. My parents always had to wait aside to get my hamburgers at McDonalds plain.
We ate some treats..chocolate covered bananas & homemade ice cream for me for lunch =), walked around the arts & crafts, looked at the antiques, climbed aboard a bus...
& then headed to the carnival....

I have never gotten around to getting a bento box & making a bento lunch list this summer..oh well. But I found a fantabulous alternative...muffin tins. I joined in on the muffin tin Mondays @ Sycamore Stirrings. Avery & Bryce had this for lunch..surprising they shared so peacefully. {btw if you are scared.. the green stuff the bunnies are floating in is Stonyfield Farms yogurt}
Another link is for this turkey burger recipe from Sugar City Journal I made tonight. it is really tasty. If you are not a turkey burger kinda person ..well you may just think it's ok [ike Paul} But my Avery ate it & that alone is reason enough to make it again.
oh I have to go back to work next week because I am new to the county PLUS I have not moved in my things yet...oh the end of summer to me. but I do have Avery's party to look forward to & family coming in town! hooray!!!

Beautiful lunch and I love the green stuff with the bunnies :)
It's just too hot here too, to enjoy the outdoors! I always love your pics, and the muffin tin idea is sooo great! I'm going to try that with L.
I think this is a great idea and love all of the color. I might have to try this with my toddler -- maybe if I give him nothing but healthy choices he will choose something....or not.
I love the little hand reaching for the goldfish! Beautiful photographs, too!
Hi Kellie, it looks like you had such a fun time despite rising temperatures. I love that muffin cup lunch idea. I bet your kids loved it!! Take care.

Cute muffin tin, and your blog is lovely. You have beutiful kids. :)
Kellie, thanks for writing me!! I will be thinking about you as you start your new position! I am very excited by the ideas you shared. I think you'll be wonderful! I wish I had had the internet as a resource when I was working full time! There are so many great ideas to pull from! I laughed at your mention of "plain" burgers because my daughter is just like that! I think your muffin tin lunch would go over big here, too! Enjoy the end of summer... and stay COOL!!!
