snippets of summer

enjoying life.

smelling the flowers as much as possible.

being asked to “drive” the Jeep off road out of a HUGE, DEEP, MUDDY hole…

this angle does it no justice!  i got us out though, stellar off-roader that i pretend to be.

enjoying the sunshine on this beauty’s face as much as i possibly can (and that little furry nugget too).

a little of this…

a smidge of this…

getting my first final grade (an A!) for my new path. 🙂

 doing lots of this for homework:

 knowing that this isn’t perfect, but that i’m trying my best.

learning about different ways that this is art, and how i need to relax about it.

enjoying a lot of this

there is quite a bit of my homerun hitter thrown in, which makes my heart SO happy

and of course there’s always, ALWAYS room for this guy:

and of course some of this goodness too

but no summer would be complete without a lot of this:

but, in my humble opinion, due to our rainy mitten weather this year, i haven’t had enough of these to enjoy (hint, hint, Big Guy 😉 )

and i can’t wait to use this to keep pop and vino cool, especially since my rl made it for me (it was my grandparents’) :

this guy and i agree, it has been an amazing summer so far, and i’m so pumped for the rest of it! may your days be filled with the glory of His masterpieces

and may you always
