this summer has been oh so lovely. we've vacationed with the fam in florida, hit three rounds of vbs, had aunt theresa for a visit, did the zoo, bowling, movies, playdates, the pool, and fishing . . . his most recent obsession.
today i am on a mission to finish the housework. the couch cushions are in the dryer, the whites are in the wash, the bedding is waiting its turn. i'm dressed for success in sweatshorts and the t-shirt with the big hole under the sleeve. the big hole will invariably catch g's eye at some point in the day and he'll laugh and think it's a riot. he always does. i wonder how many years i have left till he'll quit laughing and be embarrassed by seeing his mommy in such attire?
tomorrow i must dress a bit more professionally. tomorrow we go back to school. happens every year about this time, and it's not all bad. schedule and routine are good for us. after a couple months i actually get a little worn out with my role as cruise director. waking up to "what are we going to do today mommy" can be a bit tiring. yes, to everything there is a season. so tonight we will set the alarm and go to bed at a decent hour. tomorrow we'll wake up to the real world. thank goodness "thonged sandals" are still allowed in the teachers' dress code.
p.s. this layout is currently on its way to summer cha in orlando. be sure to check out more cha layouts on the jbs inspiration blog!
p.s.s. you should also check out this delightful blog. supercute superhappy layouts. and a darling etsy shop. she's got a drawing for some yummy prizes on the 28th. yes! i want some of that (pictured below)!

You wash your couch cushions?? Mine are DISGUSTING and I was actually thinking recently about taking them off the foam and washing them but are they hard to put back on or do you just throw the whole cushion in? Maybe they are floppier than mine???

Thanks for the nice article. Orlando has always been a favorite place for vacation. And for me its the most beautiful place in Florida. Disneyland, Sea world, Universal Studio all are the attractive spots are here. I have been searching for some accommodation in Orlando, i got many good blogs and sites which has information about accommodation there, as you can check http://www.orlandovacationhomes.com/ it will help you for sure.
