  • Highlights of My Life

    :: All last week Dan's parents, his two sisters, two brothers, their three spouses and their 7 kids were here in Bear Creek with us. It was SUCH A BLAST! I love seeing all 10 grandkids together-- they are all so cute and have such distinct personalities! I also loved being with the entire extended family. We went quading, swimming (almost every day!) played games, went for multiple walks, chatted, cooked meals, went out to eat... it was really all-in-all a terrific week. I also really enjoyed being with my three sisters in law. We four so rarely all have the chance to hang out together. Just being with them was so much fun!

    :: This morning Dan had minor surgery to remove a foreign object from his shin area. The doc thought that it might have been a piece of safety glass from a car accident Dan was in when he was 18. He's recovering well, but is still groggy and tired from the anesthesia. He and I were going to watch a movie tonight, but we'll see how that goes. :)

    :: My sisters in law and I started a blog. We all enjoy cooking, reading, baking, good movies, etc., so we started a blog to share these things we recommend. You can see it here.

    :: The end of an era has commenced. It makes us-- the extended Haas family-- a little sad, because we know that it will never be the same family company again. But hey, such is life, right?

    :: Next weekend is my dad's side of the family reunion. It will another crazy, hectic, FUN time!

    :: Last night my dad, Dan & I, and three sibs drove to Philly to see my dad's cousin in a Sherlock Homes play. It was hilarious!! If you are in the Philly area, I highly recommend you see it.

    :: Summer here is just SO great. We are at the lake almost every day, and I end up doing dinner there as well. Dan is terrific on the grill, and sides are easy enough to throw together. I love the laid-back easyness of summer cooking.

    :: And that's it. I know I have been terrible at keeping up with this blog; likely this fall when the chilly air hits, I'll be here updating daily. ;) But I am just so busy these days... getting on the computer to blog seems almost... wrong. I know it's not, but somehow I just don't end up getting on here, for whatever reason. I guess it means I'm busy doing other things, and (in this season, at least) I'm ok with that. :)

  • We live about 20 minutes from Philly, without traffic:)   I will have to see if we can catch that play.  I will check out  your new blog to, I love to cook to.   Your summer sounds nice grilling out like that.   I hope your husband is feeling better & you can watch your movie.

  • sounds like so much fun.. continue having a great summer.
