This week in pictures | July 15-21, 2013

Having a bad day? This will certainly make you smile:


Eat your greens.  Kiwi on a plate:


Kiwi on a stick:


Kiwi on palm trees:


Professor Bomba's binoculars:


I am totally guilty of on-going car neglect.  My fourth baby finally got a car wash:


We were looking for shapes in the suds.  Can you find the rabbit:


Our neighbor John gave us some homegrown zucchini:


We dipped, dunked, and breaded for some crispy, luscious goodness:


In Little Osaka with my little people:


Wall of Pocky:


Soaring with Big Bird.  What is the appeal with kids and coin operated rides:


David got a new job and I got a bonus.  He is so good to me:


We had dinner at Tsurumaru Udon Honpo, a self-service udon cafeteria:


where they serve homemade udon noodles:


You pick your udon, a choice of onigiri, and tempura from the tempura bar:


What you get is simple, homestyle Japanese cooking.  Their dashi is so rich and flavorful:


My Mom once said to me, "you are my heart".  I didn't understand that until I had my own kids:


We went for a bike ride today to our neighborhood farmers market:


A reminder to always be thankful of where we live:


Truman still won't let us take off his training wheels:


He makes funny faces when he's worried about pine needles falling on his head:


Of course I bought some pluots and plums.  My absolute favorite fruits to eat in the summer:


Truman said the purple bell peppers smelled salty:


I surprised David and picked up a few tamales for lunch...beef, chicken, and corn.  They sold out of pork:


On the way home:


I saw this sign that I would definitely put in front of my house if I drank wine.  I bet a really warm and wonderful family lives here:


After a beautiful afternoon it was time for some beauty rest.  Ahhh...to be two and covered in dots.  Lucky girl:


Happy restful weekend!
