Saturday

Summer came this weekend...and we spent a day hanging out at the pool, puttering in the garden and grilling grilled things for dinner.

Basketball season also came back after a rather short 7 week break...Alex will now play straight thru until August.  

August?

August.

After the games I somehow ended up with quite the houseful of boys and I did what any good mom would do...I went for a walk around the lake with a neighbor.

And came home to this:

And this:

And THIS, which did NOT look like THAT when I left.

small sigh.

That guy that I like so much was in rehearsals for much of the day, home for supper and is back out at the 2nd of 3 student recitals this weekend.

Summer is a comin'...isn't it?  I sure hope so, cuz I sure do miss him.

Anyway...back to supper.  Introducing....grilled pizzas.  A summer favorite around here.  My very, very, very favorite is pesto, fresh mozzarella, sundried tomatoes (the last from last summers garden) and a sprinkling of pine nuts.

YUM.

The house is rather quiet right now...though I am thinking that I need to belt out a few songs on Guitar Hero 3.

Was there life before I held a microphone in my hands?

For I am a closet rock star.  For reals.  

Frightening, isn't it?
