Bathroom Cabinet Project

We painted the bathroom cabinets labor day weekend!  We used a chalk finish paint and it was super easy!  I love how it turned out and when I have a few days off work I want to do the same thing in our kitchen and guest bath!

August Books

I read two Liane Moriarty books this month.  They were the perfect books for back to school month. I get anxious in the evenings and having a light read with an interesting story line helped me forget about any worries and just relax.


This book was so good!  The main character inherited a house on an island and the family members who already live on the island lead very interesting lives.


I loved this book!  It was about a hypnotist who is dating someone with a bit of drama.  Such a fun read!


This book was a very quick read!  I love the Housewives and it gave a bit of insider information to the show and Ramona's relationships.

Back To School!

Today was the first day of school for the students and I am wiped out :)

We had a great summer with a lot of swimming, coloring, movie nights, and family time!  And I am SO excited to start my first full year as a School Counselor!

Matt and I celebrated my first week back at school (just teachers for training) last week.


Ava and Brady watched Cinderella the next night and we did lots of swimming on Sunday!




Matt has been doing more than his fair share the past few days while I get mentally prepared for back to school :)  He cooked the best back to school dinner ever and Ava provided dinner-time entertainment!  They are the best!



Ava has been obsessed with taking pictures on our phones lately - here are a few :)



She has been having a rough time adjusting to daycare but I know it will get better.  Lots of play time and cuddles in the evening :)






She has been super excited to help cook and loves getting out "her ladder"!



We are all exhausted and will probably spend most of our evenings this week like this....


cuddled on the couch :)

Farewell Summer Break

Well, I head back to work tomorrow and Ava is back in daycare full time.  We ended our summer vacation with a busy weekend. Matt went hunting Friday so Ava and I went to Chuck E Cheese and then made some canvas art for my office!  On Saturday, I went bridal dress shopping with a friend while Matt and Ava hung out, and then Sunday we went on the boat!  It felt so good to be back out on the water!!









Now bring on the slightly cooler weather, football season, and fall holidays!!!
