that first picture captured my attention! and all the rest kept my attention! what a beautiful post Melissa! Let’s see… today I am signing up for bootcamp (Groupon), trying to get Joey to do it with me, ha ha. Kaela is at 6th grade orientation, her first gig as a cheerleader, and then going boating with her friends family. Amy is still sleeping, so I’ll probably get some quilting done or work on what-to-do-with-these-scraps-projects for some fun!
Thanks for the sweet compliments! Sounds like you have a great day planned. Enjoy 😉
What a beautiful idea…I think I will use it as a saturday prayer of gratefulness, totally smiling….Love it.
Thanks Michelle. Have a beautiful day. Love you 🙂
I want to go to the North Shore…..one of my favorite places
It’s such a beautiful place. One of my favorite places on Earth. We’re staying in Lutsen this year. Something a little different. I’ll let you know how it compares to Superior shores 😉
WOW you sure know how to tickle our sense of sight every day with your photography skills!! And my brain can usually trigger the flavor sensory in my mouth when I look at your food pictures!! Amazing!!
Kimber, you are so sweet! Thank you. You sure know how to encourage someone and make them feel good. XO
