Pinterest ... fail.

Can I get an Amen?

This is for anyone who feels my pain.  How hard can it be?  Oh yes, just go to your local store and buy standard plumbing foam instead of springing for a foam wreath.  Genius!  right????

Yeah, until you get this:

When you were supposed to get this:

I'm sorry USA, it's not you, it's me.  Can you forgive me?

And yes...it hung sorta proudly on my door for the summer.  Too cheap not to.

Down on the Farm

Sweets grew up on a farm, his parents still live there, and I wanted to see the land.  So we went out the other night and explored.  Turns out I'm ridiculously farm ignorant, I dont think I had ever been in or that close to a corn field, aside from a haunted maze (doesnt count). 

It was SO beautiful.

I guess the song is right after all. 

'They raised her up a lady, but there's one thing they couldnt avoid: ladies love country boys!' :)

Sum Sum Summertime

A fond farewell to a GREAT summer.

Wrapped things up at the ballpark and the beach - pretty perfect I'd say :)

Let's go Tigers!

HB2U Lindsay!

These are some good days of life.  We just had a new baby born into the family, and now Marvin and Lindsay are expecting their first little lamb chop in January.  

As a family, we are so blessed.  

So it was great fun getting together in Boyne to celebrate Lindsay's birthday!

Lindsley!

 Sweets and Harvey

Second only to Lake Tahoe - not too shabby!

This was fun!  Here's to many more trips to Boyne!

Bridalpalooza!

I've been a little slow with the blogging lately, there are a number of reasons for that including a slow death of a computer, summer crazy, and Maid of Honor duties!  

August was bridalpalooza, and the big day is just around the corner!  I couldnt be happier for Miss K and her fiance J.  We've been celebrating like mad. Check out the links below to K's posts - no sense double dipping!

BOGO's!

Run for it!

My Sweets and I did a 5k recently.  Pretty good for a Tuesday night!

Then he treated me to polenta - what a guy! :)

My Melis

My college roommate Melis and her husband were in town the other night, so my sweet and I had them over for dinner.  So fun to get together!

Nice necklace and Happy Birthday!
