What a warm weekend we have had. Just when I thought summer was over...*bam*, two days in the upper 90's. But not to worry! The weatherman said we will have highs in the 60's next week. That sounds much more "Autumn" to me.

This has been a good, peaceful week here at home. The garden is still producing tomatoes and summer squash like crazy, and the peppers are starting to come in. Speaking of peppers, this evening I plucked a beautiful pepper from the vine. I thought it was a sweet banana pepper, so I took a bit bite. YIKES! It was NOT a banana pepper! The capsaicin was strong with that one!

Blake is back to working with Garrett and he loves it! It is photo-shoot season for the photography company Garrett works for, and they bring Blake on as an apprentice two days a week. He loves the job, and I am so thankful to Garrett for including his little brother. Blake will be taking photography next semester too. He has an amazing eye for photos.

The chickens had a great week too. Well, at least Annabelle did. She has given use 5 beautiful eggs so far. They are small eggs, but so delicious. The yolks are a deep orange, and they taste amazing. Well done Annabelle! Hopefully Rosie and Thelma will start laying soon.

We also celebrated a canine birthday this week. Ducati turned 10! That makes two senior citizen canines in the family. :)

Hope you had an amazing week everyone.

Here are some photos from my world...
