Family Pictures at Waveland
Christian,
I made sure I put the 4 sibling pictures in a row for you. They're classics. There's even a bride and groom in the background :)
So our very creative RS posed an option for families. Everyone that wants to, show up at Waveland Park and we'll all take each other's family pictures. It was a great idea! Here's what we could come up with this early in the morning!

Paddle Boat Mischief
Peach Pie
I tried to make my first peach pie ever. It was delicious and not helpful in my weight loss goals!!!
Thank you "Southern Living" magazine for this gem:
Brown Sugar -Cinnamon Peach Pie
(I made my own crust)
8 large fresh, firm, ripe peaches (about 4 pounds)
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp salt
1 1/2 Tbsp butter, cut into pieces
1 large egg-beaten
1 1/2 Tbsp granulated sugar
Preheat oven to 425
peel peaches and cut into 1/2 inch thick slices and cut slices in half
Stir together: brown sugar, granulated sugar, Cinnamon, salt, butter and 1/4 cup flour
Add Peaches.
Stir to coat peaches.
Immediately spoon peach mixture into piecrust in pie plate.
Carefully place top layer of piecrust on top and seal edges.
Brush top with eggs and sprinkle with sugar
Freeze pie for 15 mins. Meanwhile, heat a jelly-roll pan in oven 10 mins
Place pie on hot jelly-roll pan.
Bake at 425 on lower oven rack for 15 mins
Bake at 375 for 40 mins
Cover loosely with aluminum foil (to not over brown pie) and bake 25 more mins
Transfer to wire rack and cool 2 hours before serving (if you can wait that long!)
The Ferry Ride on the KY River
Menzie Visit
Over the weekend we got to spend time with our cousins. Mom's sister, Becky and her husband and kiddos came for a visit at the tail end of their marathon cross country "vacation". We are in awe at their travel skills!
We ate well, visited and created plenty of fun and chaos.
We saw the countryside, the Kentucky River, Keenland and an inferno of a BBQ creation in our own backyard.
And only one had the same expression the whole time. . .
