Hi Neighbors!
I'm wearing a sweater today, so that must mean baking weather is around the corner π
I'm working on birthday treats today for my youngest to bring into school for her 10th Birthday. She requested sugar cookies, & of course I had to take a little inspiration from my garden π»
Summer is winding down, & what a SUMMAH it was!
Things that made this summer the busiest, most exciting, & *let's be real here* the most exhausting summer of my life:
- We threw a huge wedding shower/party in the woods for my baby brother & his amazing brideβ€οΈπ»
- We spent 10 days in Spain (yes, the kids too!) & explored Barcelona, then it was beach vay-cay time (as a Michigander I love me a fresh water swim, BUT the Mediterranean Sea is absolutely incredible π)
- Sat front row at my brother's wedding *(the girls were the flower girl & ring bearer π) It was so beautiful, and I cried my feelings out of my face the entire ceremony π€·π½ββοΈ Then onto the FANCIEST reception I will ever attend (I feel quite comfortable making that statement, it was absolutely incredible). Anyways, I've got a new sister now & I'm thrilled I get to do life with her on our little teamβ€οΈ
- Lucy's little league team won districts & we went to States! We got t-shirts & everything! π€£β€οΈπ₯
- Throw in our regularly scheduled family reunions, camping trips (my highlight was the talent show ππ€£π¨π¦) & trips to the pool, we have had a SUMMAH to remember!!!
Now we head into a season of routine, cooler breezes, hopefully some much needed rest, & of course sweet treats every now & then πππ₯§ππͺ
I'm excited to start dreaming up some yummies for you all. Keep following along for updates & I will be sure to let you know when I'm baking for the Bus Stop again πβ€οΈπ©βπ³
