Hope your day is great!

Wheeeee! It's summertime!

And, we all enjoyed our first night at the summer fest this past weekend. Looking forward to getting there a few more nights in the next few weeks too.

Vanessa is hanging out at the office with us this week. She really loves it up here! I thought I would share with you the results of her growing up in a crafty-office like ours. This morning, she was very quiet in the front room so I peeked in and found this.


What could she be making with packing foam, paint, flowers, and ribbon?- oh, and we can't forget scotch tape.....

Why, a DRESS of course!



complete with her initials for her "brand" on the tag! LOL

Maybe this signals an early retirement for me?


Have a great day!

There she is! Our kindergarten graduate, an actual 1st grader, a really sweet girl, my Vanessa. Happy Day Vanessa and Congratulations on a very successful year of learning all that stuff in Kindergarten. Mommy and Daddy are so proud of you!

SUMMER! I think I need to say that again... SUMMER!

This is the last week that I am a mom to a little girl in kindergarten! She is about to be an real, live 1ST GRADER! *gasp* Seriously, this is SUCH a big deal to her. I had no idea. In a lot of ways, this is more momentous in her mind than starting kindergarten. I am definitely a proud proud mommy and can not believe the amount of learning that has taken place this past year....reading, writing, making up poems, incredible advancements in her artistic abilities, the list goes on and on!

And yes, we are VERY ready for the summer fun to start...picnics, swimming, maybe some camping, summer festival, getting together with friends and family. Looking forward to it! What are your favorite summer activities?

I'll just leave you with this simple little layout I did about the "wishing well"


Peace & Love
