a quote by Kellie Elmore, Magic in the Backyard:
“I love how summer just wraps it’s arms around you like a warm blanky.”
although the weather doesn’t feel like the end of summer, kids starting school and labor day soon approaching, i know summer is coming to a close.
i’ve been fortunate enough this summer to spend many of my days at the beach with my partners in crime, tee (the boyfriend) and april (my best girlfriend). whether it be a full day or just a couple of hours, our beach days have been filled with refreshing dips in the ocean, yummy lee’s sandwiches, while relaxing and basking in the sun.
just this past weekend, i was able to watch the sunset over the pacific while my toes were being washed over by the extremely warm ocean water. i couldn’t help but feel… blessed! cali summer blessed!
i mean, seriously, how ridiculously amazing is this sunset???
hermosa beach, ca
this song is a few years old, but i think it’s the theme song to my summer of 2012…
enjoy, and try to soak in as much summer as you can before we “fall” back!
back in 2007, i created a silhouette of my cousin ben to use on his cowboy themed birthday invitations for his 2nd birthday.
as a gift, i took the silhouette and turned it into a little framed keepsake, which since, has been on display in his bedroom.
fast forward to 2012, ben now has a little brother, zac, who recently turned 2. so of course, it’s only fair that i created a silhouette keepsake for zac in celebration of his 2nd birthday.
i’ve really been diggin’ bright hot hues lately. i feel like just a little pop of color brings so much more fun into my days. my favorite purchase as of late is my nike free sneakers that happen to match my favorite summer nail polish (china glaze in flip flop fantasy).
super bright and super cute, just the way i like it!
