Guys – something amazing happened this Summer — we had fun — and I stepped a bit away from this here blog. I did, however, start posting all kinds of photos to my Instagram stories as a way of ‘photo-blogging’ my way through the summer months!
In case you aren’t following me on Instagram (which, why aren’t you!?), here’s our Summer in Insta-stories:





























I worked out a LOT.









We visited the farmers market often.






Adventures at the zoo!


We spent a lot of time eating samples at Costco.






My children had a blast at the YMCA — both while I was working and while they
(well, specifically, Ari, was in swim lessons!).







We went to Kentucky to visit my parents.














We celebrated my nephews first birthday!





We took a BIG family vacay to Hilton Head!
































Summer 2017 — you kinda rocked.
Looks like your summer has been an adventure. It was great seeing your kids cute and fun pictures. 😀

Good for you for taking some time away from work this summer – I did the same thing, and I don’t regret it for a minute. I lived life a little more fully for the last month, and I came back feeling refreshed and ready to get back to work. Also, I love that photo you took of the sunflowers in the crates – so pretty!
So fun! Looks like y’all had an amazing summer!
So many wonderful photos! Also it’s totally needed to step back every once in a while.
It looks like you had such a fun, busy Summer! You went so many places! XOXO
