Dog's Paradise

Simi Valley has opened a new dog park. I guess I shouldn't say "new" because it has been open for a year. I haven't found the opportunity to take Belle because children are not allowed there. Today my friend, Katherine, came over to watch the boys so I took Belle to the Dog Park. She was so happy with all her new friends. (No the last dog is not taking care of business, he is running) :) It looks like it though.

And leave it to the lab, who happens to be our dog, to be the only dog of about 30 to find the only mud puddle in this huge park. And then decide to bathe and roll around in it...numerous times.

A walking advertisement for Farmer's Insurance Group

I wonder what someone driving by would think of eight people walking a dog all sporting Farmer's Insurance Group t-shirts and Polo's? Yes proud supporters of Farmer's Insurance Group. All NINE of us:)
Grandma and Grandpa A with the boys.
If you don't know who we are, you don't read this blog enough. Ha. Pile up. Auntie Stephanie, Auntie Kelly, William and Harrison
Ha. Yes, call us the Farmer's Family. Cheesy huh? We were going for a different family picture.

I love food

A picture of a roast I made the other day. Of-course I had to take a before picture while it was still very colorful. Mom Archer's birthday cake that Kelly made.
William preparing for our tea party. He got to paint his own miniature set.
And the tea party.
Yummy. We made cucumber mint tea sandwiches, smoke salmon sandwiches and egg salad sandwiches. We paired it with "renew" tea, scones, carrot cake and red velvet cupcakes.
A tart cheesecake Kelly and I made.
And my signature dish, spaghetti.

Never a dull moment

Pretty Views
























































Lion and Tigers and Bears, oh my!

Monday was spent at the San Diego Zoo. It was amazing. It is huge and there are so many animals. It was really fun because we were able to see a lot of the animals during feeding time. They were all active and playful.
Harry's favorite.




Yum...lunch.
