I cannot believe it’s almost July. Don’t ask me where this year is going. I’m still searching for my bobby pins. As I breeze into the hot St. Louis humidity, I set out on a mom mission to find fun craft ideas that were indoor friendly on hot days. That lasted for about 10 minutes.

Summertime and the living is easy. Somewhat. Well, it was during vacation. 🙂 We had one single goal for this vacation: relax. I would say we achieved the goal with flying colors. There is something very special about living on lake time. Late mornings turned into late nights. We never rushed or felt like we needed to get something done. It was just really, really good. I encourage a schedule-free vacation for everyone once in a while!...
