Mexican Chicken, er, Turkey Soup

I roasted a turkey a couple of weeks ago - which as you all know is a huge, messy, time consuming job that yields LOTS of turkey, and a turkey carcass. So I found myself with turkey carcass stock and turkey and of course one must make soup, right? But the normal turkey noodle, turkey vegetable or turkey soup with rice themes weren't appealing to my appetite, so I looked around and stumbled on Mexican Chicken Soup - which I of course made with turkey instead. I LOVE it, and just made it for the second time tonight (lots of leftover turkey in the freezer, remember?!). I don't think I'll ever make traditional turkey soup again! :-) Only Phinehas doesn't like it, and even Elena snarfed it all down. Hooray for south of the border variations!

I'll include a gratuitous daily life photo, just for the sake of the flipcard format. :-)

Unexpected Houseguest

In February of 2020, shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic shut everything down, we ended up having an unexpected houseguest join us for a few day - which turned into 6 months! Our friend's son, Ethan, ended up rooming with Ezra and Phin for that time. Since his stay impacted us in a big way, I didn't want to leave him out of our photo albums!

When you go to a wedding...

And you take pictures! This was at the wedding of Luke and Maria Dahlin, who thoughtfully provided a photo booth for their guests, run by Peter Mahar. A good time was had by all!  Photo booth silliness! My two blondes. I love this photo: Judah all casual and Ezra so serious... Eagerly waiting for the bride and groom to make an appearance! My three boys with their friend John - and Simon (behind John's hair).
