Sweet Summertime

Well, it appears as though I took an unintentional month-long break from the blog — the longest time I’ve spent away from this space since I starting writing here in 2007. And I have missed it! Time to play catch up (mostly for my own memory keeping sake).

And sometimes, after the kids go to bed, Nick and I sit on the patio and drink wine. And try really hard to ignore the yard work that always needs to be done.

Life is busy. And so very good.
