Birthday Fun



Happy 2nd Birthday, Hadley! Harrison had such a good time playing in the pools (yes, multiple), tonight he kept saying "go to Hadley's party." I'm pretty sure he believes there's always a pool party at her house.

Goodbye Walkway



Next step, load up the truck with the concrete. Seems easy enough, but man it's exhausting!



Here's only the first load. Ryan's truck wouldn't carry anymore so we loaded the wheel barrel and moved the rest to the back section of the fence. 


Harrison can be so hard on his dada. This rock isn't level, no snacks until it's perfect (okay, he was only thinking this).

Yard Crashers


Welcome to our version of yard crashers. Ryan gets all the credit on this project. I came home to a sidewalk full of crumbled concrete and I couldn't have been happier.


Here's a view from the porch with a sneak peak on what's to come.

Website Wednesday - Armstrong Photography



I believe food is one of the hardest subjects to photograph. There are so many factors and elements that could easily go wrong or in this case right. Click HERE to browse through the wonderful photographs of Armstrong Photography. EJ and Scott are definitely some of the best in the business.

As a bonus, click HERE for their blog. You'll have to check out the blog often b/c each week Jane features her top Ebay art pieces. I've seen the studio in person and the art collection is very impressive AND she purchased a great deal of it from Ebay. Enjoy!

Flea Market


On my LONG drive home today, I made a pit stop at a small town flea market. Don't you love this spice cabinet? I don't really have the room for it OR the budget but I still think it's cool. Maybe next time. I did find two more rolling pins for my collection which were both under five bucks. I'll show a pic of them once I find one more.

$1.99 Per Gallon!


I had to do a double-take when I saw the price of Regular Unleaded Gasoline. Then I saw the line and knew what I had seen was correct. How long has it been since it's been this low? Five years? Longer?

Summer Beauties


While traveling north today, I was lucky enough to spend a lovely evening with Lily and Stella. The dusk light was shining through Stella's hair and I asked if I could take a few snaps. Unfortunately, I only had my point-and-shoot but I'm pretty pleased with the results.


Three generations . . . I'm glad I finally got one with baby smiling.
