{a day- maybe a week- in the life: saturday/sunday}

07.09.12

{It is a rule of mine- that I try to keep- to not blog on Sundays.  I usually will just blog ahead of time and schedule it to post on Sunday.  Tricky, I know ;)  But this weekend, Saturday was just too busy and I was just too tired to finish up my week posts by Sunday.  So you get to see it today instead.  I started my Saturday by biking to a special workout class}

{Then I biked to the Farmers’ Market to help run our booth}

{Being it was such nice weather, there were a lot of people at the market, and we were so busy I kept forgetting to take pictures of us at the booth.  But I did take the time to snap a shot while I waited for my crepe for lunch}

{Two of my very dearest friends from college came and visited me!  The cutie in the middle, Caila, lives in California now with her adorable little family}

{Her youngest, Strider, also came with her for the visit.  Any of you sewing/crafting/mothering?  You should totally check out Caila’s blog, CailaMade.  It is so inspiring!}

{This is the daughter of my other friend on the left.  I get to see her smiling face almost every week.  And I love it!!}

{After Market, I biked home}

{And we all helped unpack and unload from Market}

{When I came in to grab a drink of water after getting home, this little rascal had brought in a- live- present for me.  The vole ran around the entire downstairs while Trudy and I frantically tried to get it out of the house.  I think that Trudy thinks this is quite a spectacle and brings live rodents into the house simply for her own amusement while I shriek and yell and tell her, “I love how talented you are at catching voles, but please leave them outside where they belong.” }

{Once I calmed down a bit, I unloaded some of our goodies from the Market}

{After chores were finished, we decided we needed a date night being we hadn’t had one this week.  So we saw a movie and grabbed a bite to eat at our favorite downtown spot.  Please notice the awesome coasters detailing THIS awesome event happening at our farm on July 28th}

{We hadn’t had gelato in forever and thought that it was the perfect night to grab a scoop.  It was so hot outside though, we had to eat it a little too fast for me to fully enjoy it, but it was definitely still very delicious}

{Then we went and sat by the fountain and watched all the kids play}

{There were a ton of people out, including these people having a drum session.  Oh, dear ol’ Corvallis.  That was the end of our Saturday.  It was wonderfully relaxing.}

{On Sunday, we went to church and then decided to go enjoy the nice weather.  So we packed up a whole bunch of stuff and headed to the end of the field for some imitation glamping}

{Couldn’t have been a better day.  That is what I thought at least until…}

{I pulled out the Mama Mead’s gluten-free chocolate caramel salted brownies!!! You have no idea how much self-control it took for me to stop eating in order to take a picture.  And even more self-control to actually share one with Tyler!}

{We ended our Sunday under a setting sun, enjoying our property and all that God has blessed us with.  And that concludes my day- which actually really ended up being a week- in the life.  Thanks for following me through it!}

    Love how you ride with your strappy, glam-a-rific sandals stuck into the toe clips!

      Haha! Glad you noticed ;) I’ve thought before that instead of calling my blog “high heels in the barnyard” it should just be “inappropriate footwear in and around the barnyard”

    A perfect end to the series! And it was sooo fun seeing you at the market. Wish I could buy from you every week. :)
    P.S. Look at you biking home in those fabulous sandals…
