More Fun with Mina & Heather

This time, the kids and I got to go over to Heather's stylishly decorated apartment to play. They live in a beautiful neighborhood in Bethesda, and their driveway is lined with fig trees. I've still yet to taste one (they weren't ripe).

Elise and Elijah had a blast playing with Mina and all her fun toys. Heather told me all about an interesting book she's reading about a family's experience in deciding to harvest/ raise their own food or purchase it locally. It seems like such a wholesome way of living! I really admire Heather for choosing to be a vegetarian. I should become one too...

I love this beautiful pumpkin & harvest bread pan. Heather baked us some yummy lemon poppy seed bread.

It tasted and smelled divine!

Mina and Elijah have a love-hate relationship... He smacked her in the face with a toy truck - I was horrified! And sometimes, Mina likes to affectionately bump people and I think Elijah didn't realize it meant she likes him. But Mina and I are great friends! I love this smiling, scrunchy eyes face she's making!

The kids playing hide and seek in Mina's room.
