^^ Yesterday’s lunch was a salad from the garden with cucumbers, mozzarella balls (love them!), fresh herbs and Dr. Ho’s Ranch. This dressing rocks! Oh and some chips while I assembled it all! Look what came in the mail yesterday! Thomas’ mom had our picture made into a canvas. We sent this selfie to her…

Swimmin’ Holes
