Fog, Raspberries and other Happenings...

This past weeks weather has been so crazy!! Rainy and foggy for the most part, with a tiny bit of sunshine thown in every now and again. Last week, I wasn't sure if they would cancel soccer because of it, but they didn't!! Last Thursday was so funny to watch the kids though! They started off practice by running half the field and by the time they were at the goal on the other side of the field, you could not see them!! HA! Of course, by the time that I got my camera, the fog had lifted somewhat! Yes, if you look at the picture, it doesn't seem like it! Good ole Blowing Rcok and our fog!! And of course, if you drive to Boone, just a few miles away, the sun was out!!

BUT.... with all this rain and such, I think that it has helped my measly raspberry bush grow giant berries!! I had to take a picture of them cause they were so big! That is a penny in the middle of them! And boy were they sweet and yummy! Ok, so there were only 4 ripe berries at the time, Bobby went out a few days later and picked a few more. We can never keep them to make anything yet, because as soon as they are ripe, Bobby usually is there to pick and eat right away!!

And what else have we been up to?? Not too much. School is still going well for Bobby. The "summer season" is over at the theatre, but lots more is going on! Second City and Linda Lavin are this weekend! Hopefully they will have nice turnouts, especially witht he whole gas situation!! Amaryllis is crazier then ever, getting around and loving it!! She is so funny and seems so proud of herself!! We are headed to FL this weeknd and the boys are staying home, it should be fun for everyone!!
