Happy August! Wow, summer is almost over…
Hoping to go to the county fair before it ends this month.
Happy Weekend + Happy July + Happy Birthday, America!
I can’t believe that July is already here! This summer is flying by!
Hope everyone has a safe & fun 4th of July! Still don’t know what I am doing yet, but hopefully it involves lots of eating & fireworks!
June 24, 2011 - 9 months
Yesterday, was 9 months since Ipo passed away. She would have been 15 years old this month. Yes, 15 years is a long time in doggie years, so I know that she lived a long and loving life! Even though you lived a long life (according to dog years), I still wish you were here! But I am glad to see your face every day in pictures. Love you.
Happy Father’s Day + Happy Birthday, Ipo!
Happy Father’s Day to the #1 DAD! Love you Dad! And… Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers, father figures, and single moms out there!

Also, Happy Birthday to my baby Ipo! She would have been 15 years old today! She lived a long and loving life! Love you Ipo!!!

“Hump” Day inspiration…. Friday is almost here… almost.
Chocolatey Morning Goodness
Since I have been into trying new teas lately, I had a sudden craving for some scones! This weekend I decided to make some chocolate chip scones to pair with a warm cup of tea. The recipe was really easy and they came out great!

Oh, the life of a royal…
Seems like the media can’t get enough of The Duchess of Cambridge & Prince William (myself included)! I always wonder what it would be like to live a real life fairytale… but I guess (like everyone else) I have to live vicariously through the pictures and stories of Kate & William :)
