Happy Friday everyone! We’ve had tons of rain this week so I hope the weather cooperates for our beach vacation. Let’s get to it, shall we?
One.
Yesterday Ben had a field trip with his school to the St. Louis Zoo. The rain held off until we left and we had a great time. Last year the zoo opened a new Sea Lion exhibit with one of those underwater tunnels where the animals swim over you. Such a neat view of these adorable animals!
Two.
I’ve been thinking about these Sweet Tea Lemonade Mojitos ever since Kristin over at Iowa Girl Eats posted the recipe. I think they would be great for the beach, don’t you?
Three.
Ben went to his first overnight church camp at the beginning of the week. It was only for one night and two days but I missed him like crazy. Of course he had tons of fun and didn’t miss us one bit. Ben’s cousin’s church puts on this camp every year and I think it’s so great they have something like this for the younger kids. Did I mention it was in the woods? I went to a church camp growing up but it wasn’t quite this rugged.
Four.
I’ve never met a baby more obsessed with Mexican food, especially salsa. Watching him dip his chip in it is beyond funny. He doesn’t actually eat the chip he just licks the salsa off and then re-dips it. You obviously don’t want to be stuck having to share the salsa bowl with him.
Five.
Have a wonderful weekend!!!

I cannot believe he eats the salsa like that! That is too funny. Is it spicy? My son loves to eat pico de gallo, but that's super mild.
admin
It's not too spicy. I can't believe your son eats pico-does it have onions in it? Will he eat those?

That mojito… get in my mouth! yum. Your little one is so precious too.
Also… I don't know about you, but I've been super bummed about missing five on Friday for the summer. If you're interested my friend Karli {september FARM} and I {the farmer's wife} are starting up a link-up "oh hey, friday!" with the exact same outline and would love for you to join us this Friday! Hope to see you there.
xoxo
