We're heading out of state to attend a family wedding the end of this month...then back home to enjoy our grandchildren. Family grill nights and lots of pool swimming! Having my six grands all together at my home is the best kind of vacation for me! : )
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy your summertime!
Big Plan: doing a whole lot of NOTHING :D
ReplyDeleteGirl you are KILLING me with all of the inspiration! I just pinned two images from this one post. Loving it! :)
ReplyDeleteCross country move, courtesy of the US Navy. From SC to Washington. A little terrified and a little excited.
ReplyDeleteEverything is so pretty and colorful!! I just adore your craft room! Your living room looks super cute and fun too!! :) Hope you have a wonderful summer and very fun trips!! :) Yay for summer being here!!! :) Happy sweet day! xo Holly
ReplyDeleteWe are in the midst of Vacation Bible School; my Kiddos are too old to attend, but they love leading the littles. So early mornings mean laid back afternoons. Love all of your inspiration, girl!

My summer will consist of a couple of trips with my family. One to visit family members who live several hours away and the other trip is a week long trip to the beach. I love summer in the south!!
ReplyDeleteWe'll be spending the next few weeks preparing to move - YIKES!!!! Love the inspiration. Have a blessed summer.
ReplyDeleteMy plans also include a project life book! (that has been sitting unopened on my shelf for about three months now.) We are keeping things simple this summer---lots of sprinklers on and story time at the library. And lots of coffee.
ReplyDeleteWhat awesome ideas! I love all the color you incorporate into your home and life. I do the same thing and its nice to see someone else loving color. I'm actually back in college so I'm doing classes this summer while my oldest daughter is a counselor at a Christian kids camp for the summer and my other daughter is babysitting. No big trips planned this summer. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteMy family all got bikes so we are going to a lot of biking :)
ReplyDeleteLove your spray paint collection..my friend who is addicted to spray painting, would be soooo jealous. We planned on taking a trip to Florida, but decided to move there instead... So mostly we will be packing, and moving, but I'll get a bit of a vacation out of it
ReplyDeleteLast summer I started reading the Bible. I really enjoyed taking my time and reflecting on the passages. When school started (I am a teacher.) I did not feel like I was getting as much out of my reading time, so I plan to resume my daily studies and finish reading it.
ReplyDeleteGoing to visit family in Utah for 3 weeks. Lots of fun with the kids. Where did you get your boxes for the cookies? Perfect.
ReplyDeleteHi Rebekah! they were just disposable containers from my grocery store! i don't remember the brand though... maybe Reynold's?? thanks so much for the visit! ♥
DeleteI grew up in Washington State with all the lush green trees, rivers, mountains..... we are a military couple, and my hubby got relocated to OKLAHOMA... needless to say, it is NOTHING like WA lol... I'm trying to get used to the heat, and lack of water ;) . My new craft /quilting room is coming along, with new paint on the walls. Today, I am moving things back into the room, and discovering I have a wonderful clean slate to bring in lovely things that make me happy.
ReplyDeletewe are looking forward to camping at the beach here in nc
ReplyDeleteWe just got back from making thumb prints in the thumb of Michigan celebrating our 15 years of marriage!! We had a blast I got to get a bunch of pics of goats!! My favorite animal!! I makin another goat doll now!! they are just so dang cute!! We are goin back in August for a Civil War Re-enactment and then in August we have week long passes to our county fair which means more goats for me to snap pics of!! Woo Hoo!! I am super glad summer is here!! AND we have a grand girl due July 1st!! XOXO Love ya Fran.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hoops ... and I always enjoy when you show photos of your devotional journaling. Very inspiring. I do the same but my handwriting is not as beautiful as yours. My summer looks busy with a lot of time spent with my elderly dad. He needs a little extra attention right now so I am spending an hour or two or three there every day. Trying to begin the task of clearing out items in his home that he doesn't know are there and never sees or uses. My goal is to clear the attic in June, the main floor in July and the basement in August. This won't get it all, but is a starting point. There are lots of vintage items there, so in a way it's sort of fun. In early August we plan 2 days at the ocean with friends, and in late Sept. (I know, no longer summer) we hope for a lake getaway to celebrate our 40th anniversary. Love your blog!
ReplyDeleteMan, you're talented! I just found your blog so I guess I will spend some time reading and drawing inspiration.
