A Fun Day in the Casto Household

Today was Hudson's first day of preschool and he loved it!

His classroom
finding his desk at the open house

his teacher
with 2 great friends from church who are both in his class :)
When we asked what his favorite thing from school was, he replied "P.D." (he meant PE). He told us all about how he got to do big jumps & little jumps on a trampoline there.

Also, today is Trent's birthday!

He requested grilled steak & chicken shish kabobs for dinner accompanied by one of his favorite veggies, roasted asparagus, & rice. His birthday "cake" was a peanut butter banana cream pie with chocolate. :)

Happy Birthday my love! I pray this is the best year yet for you!

Seema

One of my very best friends from high school, Seema, with her fiance, Patrick and their dog Winnie. They live in NYC and were passing through Vermont while we were there. It was so great to get to spend a little time with them! Thanks for stopping!

Fun with Water

After some hard rain, the kids went and played in the puddles & loved it!

Always fun to play with a bucket of water
She doesn't know what's coming, but she loved it!

It's so nice to see them play together (in contrast to the seemingly large amount of time they argue over a toy, a piece of trash, really whatever the other one is holding).

Rainbow Pancakes

We made Rainbow Pancakes for dinner the other night and they were a hit. I thought I'd share the link of where I got the idea here. She does a great job showing pictures and directions, so no need to re-post. We chose 3 colors (green, orange & blue) and enjoyed all of them!



A Timeless Toy

I recently saw this for a good deal and decided to get it. Both of my kids love it and many friends have played with it, from ages 1-6.


Definitely worth the investment & having extra clutter in our house!

We've enjoyed a lot of things last week...

no humidity

tennis

ice cream
hiking

milking a cow

learning/watching how cheese is made

watching an air show with cousins

and mostly just hanging out with family



We actually forgot a camera, so these are the few phone pics we got.
