My girl was a fun shopping partner over the weekend. We picked her up a couple dresses and she was pretty happy when I shared my non-coffee, non-caffeinated drink with her!

I always thought when life got too busy, that I wouldn't just forget about my blog. But then the past two weeks happened and all of my good intentions to write fell to the side. L finished preschool and Summer is here all while M has started another semester at school and we've been busy tackling a few projects. We've got some other behind-the-scenes things going on and I'm just exhausted. Turns out it's a lot easier to ignore the blog and grab a good book or sneak in a nap.

But here I am, trying to dive back in. I'm sure I have stories to get out that will find their way here eventually. For now, here's what life has looked like...

Another year, another Mayfest. It's strange to know we've been here for three years and when we spend the afternoon at our town's local festival, we bump into friends from around town and soccer coaches and people we know in real life and not just strangers. It's a good sense of feeling like we belong here and also a crazy sense of how have we lived here so long to be this settled?

But we had our usual fun. Hanging out on the dock, grabbing some BBQ, picking up a piece of local artwork. We attempted to get pictures of Lia on this fun hidden-away tree but some very large ant crawled on her arm and there was a bit of a fiasco with it biting her and trying to get it off and calming her down. So we bought her the messiest icy treat we could find and called it an afternoon. Here's to next year...may we not come across a colony of mean ants!

Watching her imagination run wild on a warm, Spring evening in the backyard is on the top of my "things that make me happy" list. Her new play set has officially been dubbed her pirate ship where she fights off the mean pirates who take her dog.
