Asado

June 11, 2012

So I think I've mentioned about a bazillion times that there really isn't anything to do in this country.  Thank goodness for friends and backyards and pools or else I might lose my everloving mind!  A couple weekends ago, yes still playing catch-up, we went to an asado at the Lawrence family home.

I had a picture of just Magda (pink shirt) and Mike (white shirt) but it wasn't the most flattering of Magda so I'm not publishing it.  But this is their home and they made an amazing meal for everyone.

Paola and Moira.  Moira and family are leaving soon - sad.  Such is the life in the diplomat/military business!

No one even thought about swimming.  So funny how 85 degree weather is considered too cold to swim as the pool temp is no longer equivalent to bathwater.  Maggie, however, will not be ruled by convention and soon all the girls were in the pool!

Making "ice cream" out of leaves and flowers.  Not sure I'd eat it but it sure was pretty.

Friends.

Nothing is more entertaining to a baby than the random stuff laying about.  Toys are virtually useless I've come to realize.

Somebodies cranky!  Sure wish I knew how to turn photos. 

As for the Whole 30 Program.  I'm getting closer to no cheats ;o)  I am not daunted because I realized this morning that while I was vegan for 5 years and vegetarian for 18 it didn't happen overnight.  I'm not good with strict NO rules.  I need to work into it.  I'm thinking by next week I should be well on my way to actually starting the 30 days.  I figure there is no rush.  I'm eating healthy and feeling a TON better.  I think I actually have a sense of humor again.  God Bless my family for dealing with me this past year.  I think I was pretty much cranky all 365 days!  Hubby needs a really good father's day gift!!
