The week gone by was, well, life changing. Not just for me, but for my whole family, and for Bree, the wonderful girl who has joined it. All sorts of meetings and stress are behind us, and while there are likely many challenges ahead, we’re feeling pretty peaceful for now. We’re at the cabin, happy to show her around and share with her some of our traditions. She has already noted that we are a very “singy” family … so when we did our Disney princess challenge on the way in (in which one person sings a Disney song and the others try to name the movie faster than the others), she wasn’t overly surprised.
The other day she asked what exactly we DO up here. I think she’s figuring it out, and is starting to find her own groove. She’s been swimming, enjoying big breakfasts and plenty of baking, relaxing, exploring the woods. She likes to fish but is terrified of boats. We’ll have to work on that.
Today has been a day to make a few of the comfort foods that we love to eat when at the cabin. Buttermilk biscuits for breakfast…
Cinnamon buns for an afternoon snack …
Pasta salad, chicken parmesan and Gingerbread cake to take with us to Andrea & Mike’s for dinner…
A good day so far!!
Peace out.
I’m so glad Bree has you! She deserves someone who will look out for her best interests and show her the love she deserves.
Glad she’s getting to see the cabin before the season ends.
Those baked goods look good. Add them to my list! 😉
