I'm off to the beautiful state of Virginia for 4th of July weekend! Hoping to get to the airport on time and in one piece this time! Last time I flew there was a terrible wreck on the interstate and I sat in traffic for an hour, finally I turned around and barely made it to the Atlanta airport on time. I'm telling you, that is the worst feeling! I was parked, through security and on my plane in 20 minutes flat. I ran the whole length of the Atlanta airport. You'll be surprised how quickly you can get somewhere when you're really motivated! Happy 4th everyone! Eat lots of watermelon and hotdogs!!

I picked up a hitch hiker! This crazy bug rode all the way home on my windshield.


I found this cutie for a quarter at the thrift store today.

What a wonderful Saturday, what started out as a day running errands turned into a day of leisure. I got up early to get my car worked on, but it ended up taking much less time than expected so I went thrift shopping and to the mall. The sky was cloudy and foggy this morning and I was pleasantly surprised to see clear skies and sunshine when I left the mall. I found myself organizing my closet when I got home and making peach cobbler (which was gobbled up before I could even document it...sweets never stay around long at our house!). Hope everyone had a wonderful Saturday!

My week in pictures...

I woke up at 7 a.m. on Sunday to watch the sun rise on my 25th birthday...holy moly...I'm getting old. I was sad to leave 24 behind, but if 25 is half as good as 24 was...I have a whole lot to look forward to.


These lemons are the result of a failed attempt to do the "master cleanse". I made a valiant effort, but it is so hard to not eat! I quickly discovered that fasting is not for those that have blood sugar problems. Now I need recipes calling for lemons (and lots of them) or a lemonade stand...one of the two.

These were actually last week, but my sweet boyfriend sent me roses for my birthday...14 of them to be exact! I love them!



Last, but not least, I'm seeing more flowers than weeds in my garden! Cosmos, zinnias, sunflowers, and bachelor's buttons to name a few. Also, lemon basil, mint and rosemary. I'm pretty excited!

Have a great weekend everyone!

So I've been M.I.A for over a month now! If my blog were a garden it would be covered with weeds and thorns and who knows what else! June is always the busiest month, summer is here, birthdays (in my family it's a very busy birthday month!) and just life in general. The days are longer so I feel like I need to stuff as much as I possibly can into each day. I have been working on a website lately though that I wanted to share. Most of the pictures are repeats of what I've posted on here, so hopefully you won't mind! Enjoy and don't forget to sign my guest book please.
