A Painting

I have not painted in...I can't even say how long. It felt good to slap some colors on a canvas. Here is the result:

I have to admit that I copied another painters painting, but mine turned out way different from his ;). I hope to make a habit of painting again, it makes me happy!

Something Healthy - Zucchini Pizza Boats

These things were actually quite delicious. Just seed a zucchini, creating a groove down the center, add spaghetti sauce, cheese,  and whatever else. Bake for 25 mins at 400 on a pizza stone. Yum

Birthday

It was Lexi's Birthday this week! We had lots of fun celebrating the past few days. Today we had a party with cousins and a few neighborhood friends at Lexi's Grandma's pool. Lexi enjoyed every minute. She managed to destroy half of her cake using a Woody Toy Story doll. It was awesome. We are so thankful for her and love her very much! 

Some Hiking

Matt ditched work a little early today so we decided to go on a hike to switch things up a bit. I started out running up the trail. Thinking I would get bonus workout points, you know? That only lasted a few switchbacks up, maybe next time. It ended up not being too hard, the trail disappeared on us a few times, but we managed to find the waterfall at the end, see above. Oh and the thunderstorm that rolled in mid-hike, no big deal ;). Lightning and thunder in the canyon is a little freaky!
