Meet our neeeeeeighbors!<\/h2>\n

We have discovered we live next to a farm! There are horses and cows that we visit while out on our evening scooter walks. Sometimes they are way out in the pasture, and sometimes they\u2019re right up by the fence! They are nice and friendly. Guess we\u2019re country folk now! <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

There are also babies!!<\/p>\n

And I had a huge buck in my backyard a few weeks ago!<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s my morning view, which I am obsessed with. I\u2019m trying to have my coffee outside rather than at a computer. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

And here is the view when we had two days of wildfire smoke haze make its way to Virginia. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

That same day, we had planned to celebrate Sean\u2019s birthday at Blenheim Vineyards and moved the party indoors due to the air quality concerns. We still had a great time with an Amalfi Coast theme!! Everyone came dressed in blues and whites. <\/p>\n

No amount of gum graft surgery could keep me from eating this cake! It was a vanilla cake from Wegmans with lemon filling, and Savannah the wedding planner decorated it beautifully with fresh lemons and hydrangeas! <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n

Happy Birthday Month, Sean!<\/h4>\n

After the winery, we went to Whiskey Jar for dinner, where I consumed this entire blackened catfish with delicious grits underneath. It was my first real meal since Wednesday and I was starving!<\/p>\n

Cottage cheese fest! <\/h4>\n

(Surprisingly, I didn\u2019t have any oatmeal this week, mostly because I didn\u2019t have the energy to stand and cook it! The grab-and-go foods were worth the investment.)<\/p>\n
