Red Thread...

There is an ancient Chinese belief which states that there is an invisible red thread that connects each of us to all of the individuals who have been, currently are, and will in the future be important to us in our lives.

This red thread can stretch, twist, and bend… but will never break.

Finishing Her Dessert

After having dinner, Katie decided to finish her 4th of July dessert. If you didn't already guess, she decided to make a flag cake.

First I put the cream on top of the cake.

Then I started adding the berries to make it look like a flag.

The berries all looked delicious to me.

I just had to start tasting the berries to make sure they were good.

Ta-da! Success! My favorite part of the cake was the berries. I didn't like the cream, so I ended up scraping that off of all of my pieces!

Putting Together a Dessert

 When the 4th of July hit, Katie decided that she was going to put together a dessert for everyone.

I'm getting pretty good at using a hand mixer.
What do you think I'm making?

Checking on the Blackberries

When July hits, Katie starts dreaming of blackberries. We decided to go check the bushes by our house to see how close berries were.

You have to be careful when you're walking in sandals near these prickly bushes!

I made it!

Some of the flowers were still left on the bushes, but...

...most of the flowers were gone and berries were in their place. Now I just have to wait for them to ripen!

Darn It

When the yard people were here the other day, they accidentally pulled the flower that Katie gave me for Mother's Day.

I couldn't believe the flower was gone when I walked out.

I couldn't stop staring at it!

Darn it! I loved that flower!
