Summer 22: The Catch Up (So Far...)

Oh hello there! Here is a random straight-out-of-the-camera pic of my hubby’s car out at my mom’s ranch from last week. The colors were unreal y’all!

…and, honestly, that’s what you can expect from this post. Just kind of random stuff. But I wanted to check in, share a little of what we’ve been up to and say hello.

Speaking of that man of mine…I got him a griddle for our last anniversary and he’s had a blast cooking up all sorts of yummy things for dinner. It’s come in really handy when we’ve had guests - you can feed an army relatively quickly with these suckers.

It was planting season at the lake.

Shortly after these pictures were taken, we had a days long, sustained high-wind event that shredded my elephant ears in the pic above. I was so bummed.

Gotta have the occasional snow cone break! My fav has been creamsicle so far this summer.

I picked up an iPad Mini a little bit ago. The smaller size makes this much easier to tote around and quickly sketch with. I love my 12” iPad Pro but it’s a little unwieldy, especially on planes. This little guy is so handy to have with when inspiration strikes or I’m trying to finalize a project on the go. Highly recommend.

My mom won a lifetime achievement award recently, which resulted in the a house full of guests as we celebrated her. Our guest room had become a storage room so, the week before, we scrambled and got it guest ready.

We celebrated the nugget’s 12th birthday at the lake. We bought a bunch of decorations and decked out the family room. Wal-Mart put a 5 in a 2 package but we made it work — mostly! :)

Last - and kinda least - we got the nugget new bedding for his birthday because….that’s what he wanted. I will never fully understand him but I’m glad we got him something he loves!

That’s the bring-you-up-to-speed pic dump. How’s life out there?
