Summer Fun & Cheesy Caesar Chicken Breasts

This summer is just flying by! Where is the time going? We have been doing so much, had so many visitors, and been going so hard that I feel like I have lost all control of schedule and any semblance of order 😂.

In the past 2 weeks…

My SIL and JQ came for a visit! They brought her new friend and his 2 children plus his Mom! We went swimming and out for a adult only dinner 🍷.

A few days later my Sis, BIL, SPea and CPatch came for the August Long! Sis kicked my ass again with her Beach Body exercising  we played cards and roasted marshmallows while sipping champagne by the fire! We went to The Farmers Market, had more pool days and took a drive through Summerland tasting cider, fruit wine, and craft beers!

SBean had dance rehearsal and everyone enjoyed a night at The Penticton Speedway! Sis and Family left on BCDay while the rest of us headed to Gyro park to watch Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his wife, Sophie Gregoire Trudeau speak! It was amazing! HBear was lucky enough to have a moment with Mrs. Trudeau! She leaned right down and look directly in HBear’s eyes and said, “always be courageous. Even if you’re fearful, always have courage. You are beautiful.“ ❤️ it was awesome!

SUP yoga was cancelled last week so we enjoyed a beach morning just the 3 of us girls. Even though we have done so much, I feel like I have barely seen them this summer. It was wonderful just to hang out for the morning.

HBear, SBean, and JQ went to Gymnastics Camp together for 2 days and then Peachfest began!

The Opening Day was amazing! KBesty joined us and we watched the Skyhawks leap out of planes with their Canadian flag parachutes! It was phenomenal! We watched the Black Widow Rope Spinners and our friends Three Scotch In played on the main stage! Then we hit up the Midway and enjoyed rides before we settled in to watch Kim Mitchell take the stage! The Girls had a backyard campout to end the day!

Peachfest Day 2 started early in the morning. We went to the kids stage and watched Kiki the Eco-Elf! We also watched the Black Widow Rope Spinners, played in the petting zoo, the reptile petting zoo, the coding tent, and played with bubbles and balloon animals! We then headed over to the main stage to watch the Mega Motocross riders. It was so hot out! We then headed to the beach to cool down. After that it was SBean’s shining moment to take the main stage with her acro jazz group, the Circus Cats! She was so nervous but did so well! We listened to some good music and then headed over to Skaha Beach to see the Sandcastle competition. HBear went back to Peachfest to watch April Wine with Dad to end their evening.

We went home and celebrated our 8th Wedding Anniversary! And by celebrate I mean we gave each other a few presents and went directly to sleep 😂.  Of course we bought basically matching cards… Again 😂.  I bought him sheets (linen) and Saxx and he bought me flowers, a gift certificate to Peaches Lingerie (lace) and a beautiful handmade dip/serving platter (pottery) ❤️.

Of course Peachfest is not complete without attending the annual Peachfest parade! Ninja’s brother and our oldest niece, PSketches got into town Saturday evening and we took her golfing with HBear the very next day! It was her first time and she did so well! It was a super fun day! We ended our day with a delicious Dinner at my In-laws!

SIL and GQ left yesterday but of course we had them over the night before for their annual Mexican dinner at the Maier’s! It was a very nice visit and recipes for that dinner will be coming next week!

With some careful manoeuvring and scheduling we managed to put out a few new episodes of How Was Your Week, Honey? You can check out our last 3 episodes in the links below!
