Next year!

Boise food truck rally

It was nice to visit the North End! Went to the Food Truck Rally...Jerad and the kids hit up Brown Shuga, a soul food truck, and I played with the kids while he waited in line. It was wind though, so we didn't stay too long. On the way home we stopped at Big Bun and shared a coconut pistachio shake which was delightful.

Date Day

Liam hing out with Jackson so Jerad, Cassia, and I spent a few hours this morning playing in Hyde Park. We shopped at Dunia's Marketplace and bought some free trade Indian spice rub, Malaysian spices, and some seed packets to help refugees. We had lunch at the Sun Ray Cafe (Jerad got pulled pork sandwich, I had Greek salad with salmon), and then we stopped at the used book store. Cassia was an angel, smiled at everyone and ate some applesauce (though she would have rather had some salmon)

My salmon salad

the Sunburst Salad is back and Jerad is like, SO EXCITE

Cassia gives up on me and feeds herself

antique store

....and then I came home to find the dogs had broken a jar, spilled a plant on the floor, and knocked over the lap top. Lovely

More quotes from Liam this week

""Mamma, this is what we need to do. We need to get missiles and build a robot"

Jerad and Liam are playing Legos. Jerad says "why don't you build a grasshopper?"

Liam "A GRASSHOPPER!? WAIT A MINUTE!'

And he's really excited for a sibling. Really.

"I don't want to be a brother. I don't want a sister. I want to go to bed. I want to be a centipede"

And his way of dealing with the pregnancy is deny, deny, deny.

"That's not a baby, you just ate food"

At least Camelback Park is still fun. Even without missiles and robots.
