Last weekend Reagan was bummed that she missed out riding her bike around the neighbourhood with Amelia and Sierra, our teenage neighbour. Today I suggested a walk, and of course it's raining, but we went anyway. Nice walk, around a few blocks. Gave us some ideas for our house, landscaping wise, with sheds, and I think I'll do brick face on our front porch area, instead of re-painting it. I love the look. Reagan jumped in puddles in her rain boots, and saved worms from puddles.

I made turkey vegetable soup this morning, full of onions, celery, leeks, carrots, corn, navy beans and kidney beans. The stock was probably the best stock I've ever made. I kept everything Christmas week, veggie peels, veggie tops, mushroom stems, onion skins and it cooked for days, along with turkey and bones from our dinner. I am not sure I'll be able to eat it, but I think Tim and Reagan will like it. Plus there is tons, so I can freeze it and have it for future weekends. We've actually used up all the soup I had frozen! We have some nice sourdough bread, so will have that rather than making biscuits.

Slowly getting caught up on laundry from Vegas, thanks to Tim. Made waffles for lunch. Snuggled with Tim on the couch this morning, or rather, he snuggled with me.

Reagan has been so funny this weekend, doing plays for us. She told us they were British plays, so she had a "British" accent. She sounded like the mouse from American Tale "wewease the swecwet weapon". Apparently accent = lisp to her. Yesterday I was almost crying, I was laughing so hard. Today I managed to keep it together.

All in all a nice weekend!
