Friends and Food

It's been a busy last few days in the Green house, so I'm trying to do a better job at keeping up to date on here. We've been blessed to have some fun, quality time with friends recently. My friend Luana, whom I worked at summer camp with, was here to visit in between a conference and a wedding. I haven't seen her in six years (I can't believe it's been that long!) and it was so much fun to be able to catch up. It reminded me how fortunate I am to be able to be close friends with her even though we don't get to see each other very often, although Scott and I are already trying to figure out when we can visit her in Australia.

We were also able to spend some time with our friend Carrie, and Callum got some great reading attention, which he loved as usual. He's so fortunate to have such a great godmother!

As many of you know, food is an important part of being a Green. So far, minus not liking apples initially, Callum has easily proven himself to be a worthy green. He loves eating food, especially veggies. Avocado and peas are probably his current favorite, although this weekend he was able to try a new food. Beets! We have been receiving batches of vegetables as part of a CSA program, and he tried some of the beets they gave last week. He loved them, although now since he thinks he can feed himself, it definitely makes for a large mess!
