My favorite summer noodle dish is back! So quick to whip up in no time.

Grilled shrimp with onions on rice noodles with mint, basil, lime and fish sauce.

I made my version of a breakfast burrito wrap – Grilled turkey breast with guacamole with heirloom tomatoes, sauteed peppers, onions and scrambled eggs.

We’re heading out to another pool party/bbq at friends!

Happy kids.

After many hours of playing in the pool… Shane’s new thing was jumping in the water…

and Chloe began to swim under water!

We’re celebrating 4th of July at our friend’s backyard/pool.

We barely got out of the pool all day.

I brought my burger patties to please the crowd. 🙂

fun diving.

Happy Independence day!

My favorite quick pasta dish – whole wheat spaghetti with peas and pancetta.

The Wei’s did a fantastic job decorating for Naomi’s birthday. I loved Rapunzel’s hair hanging in the middle of the dining room.

Make-up stations

Rapunzel made a surprise visit!

She face painted all the girls,

took pictures with little princesses,

read a story,

and even sang!

Cake time!

After Rapunzel left, I was hired to do some “real” face painting. 😉

All the girls wanted butterflies

except for Chloe. She wanted to be a flower.

Happy birthday princess Naomi!

Before we head out to an another event, I made a quick pasta salad for the kids.
