Greenhouse visit
Last weekend when the girls spent the night, we made a stop at the big Greenhouse near us. I've posted about this place before as I visit it every Spring to get hanging baskets and pots.
We've taken the girls here before, and they always enjoy it because there is a playground on the grounds.
It had been raining so we told them they could go in the train, but the rest was too wet.
They had fun running through the different train cars.
The greenhouse is much emptier than it was this Spring, but there were still lots of plants for Bob to look at, and this time of year they are on sale! He found some, and then we checked out some of the other things that the girls love to look at. They have lots of statues and topiaries to look at.
The girls used up a lot of energy checking all these fun things out!

A Day in my Life
We're into September! School is started, Fall is almost here.
September 1 was a Saturday and was a busy day for me, but I started the month by sleeping in! It's been my week to be on call and there have been a few too many calls during the night, followed by early mornings. I got no calls on Friday night and got to sleep till 8:30 am! Bob had to work, so it was just me at home.
After I got up I had a walk on the treadmill, then after getting ready, had a small breakfast.
I had this 'oui' yogurt. Have you tried it? It's French yogurt and I wasn't sure if I would like it because I don't care for greek yogurt. I love this though, and the little glass jars are so cute.
I needed to go to the store, but it was pouring outside, so I started some housework. There was laundry to be done and some cleaning as well.
It stopped raining so I made my grocery store run, but guess what?
On the way there, it started raining again! I got pretty wet getting into the store.
I spent some time getting groceries and went back home.
I made my favorite tomato dish for lunch.
Then I worked on making the cookies, and finished cleaning the house while they baked.
We have 2 new neighbors, so I made a bunch of cookies, packaged them up and delivered them. It was nice to meet them and talk to them.
By this time, it was sunny, and was actually very hot and humid.
A little before 6, Bob got home from work, and shortly after that our kids all came for pizza.
Yes, all of them! Andy and Nikki were here from Kentucky for the weekend. It was so nice to have the whole family together again.
We had a very enjoyable evening together!
What a nice way to start a month!
