Blessed

It seems like life has just been so crazy this summer.  Enjoyable, but so crazy busy!  In all of this, I just feel God's blessings in my life.  He has been so faithful to us.  Brian is loving his new job and is super busy.  I have such wonderful family (on both sides) that we love to spend time with.  We have great friends, a lovely house, and a fun-loving, crazy dog!  Not to mention, even though it is very hot right now, Autumn is on the way!  I love Autumn and cannot wait for the leaves to fall, the smell of a crackling fire and pumpkin candles, and drinking hot apple cider :)  But back to Summer.. Here are some pictures of what we have been up to lately.

Hop on Pop.  Bear's new favorite game.. He likes to do this to Aunt Hayley too.

Yes, we are the crazy people that take our dog to doggie daycare, and we love it!

They gave Bear a birthday party and made him special treats.

VCA sent Bear home with pictures from the day, doggie treats, and a new collar & leash!

All his friends were there... We love our doggie daycare!

I made a cake for my boss' 47th wedding anniversary

Red velvet with cream cheese icing roses

Celebrated Scarlett's birthday.  Love this girl! Sad that my picture is so dark

Homemade strawberry cake with cream cheese whipped icing that didn't hold the strawberries on very well.  They definitely slid around on the cake before the party started
