The Shafferland Shuffle

A fun and busy week here in Shafferland! Hoping you had a similarly great week wherever you are!

* We thoroughly enjoyed our busy, lazy Sunday at home last week. I scrapbooked hard that afternoon and finished two albums I wanted to wrap up! We both took naps, and Braeya swiped Ryan's water during dinner. Sigh. This is why we need lids. It was such a pretty day, so we took a sunset walk to end a nearly perfect day.

* Monday I made burritos for lunch (clean eating version) and Ryan loved them so much he declared he could eat them every day forever. Impressive! I switched up my workout again, wondering if my body was getting too comfortable with the one I had been doing. I can attest that it is NOT comfortable with this one! :) Another beautiful sunset walk ended our day!

* We went to the county fair on Tuesday night! We had a great time walking around, seeing friends, sharing an elephant ear, and checking out our niece's Mini 4-H projects. It was fun that the fair wasn't SO packed that night. We could actually breathe a bit!

* I made the cutest taco salad bowls on Wednesday. Never made them before, but they were easy and (I won't lie!) delicious! That afternoon I worked on researching and writing a talk for this fall, and I finished reading my novel - with a little help from Braeya JoJo.

* As you already read, Thursday was the day we welcomed our new nephew, Camden, into the world! It was fun to get to snuggle a baby for a minute, and we are so thankful he's here safely. Ryan's mom and Allen took us out to dinner at the end of the day, so we got to spend a little extra time with them.

* We had run out of dessert on Friday, and I always like to make sure Ryan has dessert. So I made a clean eating version of apple crisp. It was very tasty! We stayed home that night so Ryan could work on laying a new drain in our yard. Though at first I thought it was a lifeline helicopter, it turned out to be a crop duster flying over our neighborhood all night. I hadn't ever seen a chopper version! Only airplane.

* Yesterday was SO much fun! We did so many things, it's hard to condense them all to one little list! But a highlight of the day was the DEER that came into our driveway and yard! Little Bambi! I was SO SO SO SO SO SO excited! We also had a visit from our friend Jessica, kept Phoebe all day, and had another fun night at the fair! AND we held the baby again. So much goodness in one day!
