Mrs. P and her children came by earlier in the afternoon, and stopped by for a few moments. She had brought us a gallon of milk and some bread her oldest daughter had made. They invited us to come over later if we wanted to, and so after awhile, we took a walk and went to their house for the evening. It was jolly fun. I took the camera along so I could snap some photos.
Samo and Lu were ready to go before anyone else, so I amused them by taking their pictures. Aren’t they sweet?!
this is the field at the top of our road. usually, there is a couple cows or a pair of horses in the field. the horses nor the cows were there this time tho. I tried getting a panorama shot but I couldn’t get it to match up. I’ll try again sometime.
beautiful trees. they have cut some of them down, but there is still a good bit left to get some photos of. I need to go during the early hours when the sun is out and I can actually take some nice ones of them.
A little farther down the road, and you’ll see this:
and look to the left, you’ll see this:
and back down towards home is this view:
hidden among the trees were two big white bulls. one was just lazily munching on the grass…
this one wanted to play hide and seek with me. you think he is hidden enough?
then he wandered off to go find some more to eat, in the trail of the other one.
the light was fading, so it made the photo blurry:
when we got to the P’s house, I always linger a moment at the gate. the flowers that overhang are so pretty and welcoming. I love flowers that do that. they make the house seem so much more inviting.
aren’t they pretty?
before I went into the house, I went around the house to get some photos of the natural pretties that grow in their yard. first there were these purple flowers. they always remind me of someone singing if you look at them straight-on. don’t they?
then there were these:
I don’t know what they are, but they sure are interesting.
Mrs. P, of course, wanted us to stay for dinner. Helena had made eggs for egg salad, on homemade bread, of course. :) Mrs. P also made us something we never had before: spring rolls.
they were interesting… yep.
Samo enjoyed a spoon of peanut butter while we waited for dinner to be done. he greatly enjoyed that. :)
Hannah and Helena made peanut butter chocolate chip cookies for dessert. [ecstatic] perfect way to end an evening.
but not quite, because Mrs. P made us expressos! my very first one… it really just tasted like super strong coffee with a bit of flavoring and milk in it. But I liked it. It was good. :) she tried to do a pretty design on each of them, but she said she needed to practice again. So I guess I could help with that.
unfortunately, the photo I have won’t upload for me… soooo, sorry. :(
hope you enjoyed the post and the photos… :)
as ever,
