One of the things that has been great about this week is spending our early mornings and late afternoons outside behind the church. There is a gazebo there and two terrific climbing trees and so I relax with a cool drink while the boys pretend to be monkeys.
We celebrated my dad's birthday today and my mother made a yummy cake with cool whip and raspberries. It was so good and I plan to request the recipe! I have a reliable chocolate vegan cake for fasting day, but I'd really like to have a vanilla one for some variety.
We're getting our girl back tomorrow! Please keep us in your prayers... we'll be on the road for hours!

Many years to your Father!
What lovely pictures. :)
In my experience, boys don't usually have to *pretend* to be monkeys... ;)
I have a good stand by vegan vanilla cake! If you're interested I can email it to you. As a general rule, you can just replace the cocoa in your recipe with flour and triple the amount of vanilla (or more if you really want to smell and taste vanilla!)
p.s. Once, I added a boatload of lemon zest to the batter and swirled in raspberry jam. So good. I need to do that again ;)
