Lunch Bunch

Here is Lulu, Almond butter and all, enjoying our last lunch outside during the latest string of beautiful, warm weather! Please warm weather...don't be gone long! We love you!!!

Lets Bake!

I decided to try a science expierment and see what baking with Olivia would be like. It was too rainy/cold to go outside after dinner, and she was really needing alittle excitement before ending the day. I had some pumpkin puree left over from another recipe, some banana's, and oatmeal, and I really really wanted to make oatmeal, pumpkin, banana cookies. The combo sounded great to me so I made up the recipe as we went along. The pictures were taken when it was Olivia's turn to stir, but instead she thought that it was her turn to taste! Despite Olivia pouring in way to much of some ingredients, and eating others before they made their way to the bowl, I was happily surprised at how good these cookies came out. I had alot of fun baking with lulu and can't wait to make Christmas Cookies together.

Renaming the Blog

I wish that I could rename this blog. It has turned into Olivia's blog. That is a beautiful and amazing thing, and it should be called Olivia's Zone. For now I am blogging fun things here, and only occasionally under my "Living for Peace blog." It is in my profile. I only blog there when I am posting something that comes from somewhere other than my outer self. I want it to be a deeper expression of who I am. I can post the other fun, family news here. The "Living for Peace Blog" represents my story to reach Peace, peace within myself, and this world. My hobby is entering spiritual journey's to reach truth and Love, by going nowhere other than within. More on that over there.
Love Lisa

Rainy Day Fun

Livy and I took some time to splash in the rain last week. It was fun and she really enjoyed freely puddle jumping. Who wouldn't?
