Not much happening....

Life has slowed down this week and it has been nice. Vacation was fun but it's always nice to be back home. The boys are out of school until next Tuesday so we have just been hanging around the house. 64 more days and we will be headed to the US for 68 days. The boys can not wait and neither can I. Kenny will only be able to come back for about 3 weeks. I know he will miss us and we will miss him even more.

This week we have swam, watched TV, played games, played at the park, played with friends and even exercised a little. Kenny is off today and the boys and I are excited to have him here.

I have tried a few new recipes this week and they have all turned out pretty good. One night I made sweet and sour chicken and spring rolls. I felt like I was in the kitchen all day but everyone loved the food. I didn't eat much after cooking it all day. :-) Last night I made a bacon cheeseburger roll and it was really good. http://homecooking.about.com/od/beefrecipes/r/blbeef175.htm

 Spring Rolls 

Nelson cutting down some Dendé. I have a link below you can read about this fruit. My maid and driver said they boil them and then eat them with sugar or bananas.
