Ahhhh, saturday again. We had a nice start into the weekend - the boys slept in, so did we. This past week was quite filled with activities, so there was not much time to relax. But now the weekend's here...
Like last week, we had a big bowl of black raspberries - and Henry likes them now :-)

Looks like we're trading our Van today - we'll miss it - so many memories (all the trips we did with this car... (www.jtus.net/reisen/reisen.htm) )

While preparing lunch, the boys were helping:

Currently, Henry's 'obsessed' with cars and pots & pans (car! car! car!; 'pfe, pfe, lllellle' - which translates to Topf, Pfanne and Loeffel which again is pot, pan and spoon) So cute...

sorry about the funny way this layout works - I can't edit the code the way I'd like... I might try a different blog-platform soon and see, which works better regarding the possibilities of programing...

weekend wrap-up

The past weekend was very hot and humid - F & H still needed to be outside. So we filled their little pool and they had a splash! Of course complaints are huge once it's time to go inside again. But a fresh berry or chocolate banana smoothie did the trick... Try it - so easy and delicious. Maybe I should pass the recipes...

Trying to be a little Greener day by day...

Used cloth diapers on H today
Laundry air dried
Kitchen scraps to compost
all my boys took our recycling bins to the drop off

Saturday morning pleasures...

We just came in from picking some raspberries. Tey're so sweet this year and so far our friendly neighboors, the deer, didn't eat that much. So still plenty to pick. F had a handful right from the bushes. Little H does not like to eat them - picking seems to be fun though :-)
Better go, H decided to play cooking with my pots an pans...

Green LapCat - 1st post

Finally, after thinking about it for a long time - blog needed or not - I made up my mind. It's friday evening, I consider this a good time to start.

Hopefully this way everyone who is interested to know what's going on in our lives, is able to catch up and stay in touch. With friends and family all over the world, this seems to be a good way. Maybe this can also serve as excuse for those rare emails ;-)
Anyway, let's see, what's next and let meknow what you think.
