Old friends and a cool summer.

Cool as in the weather. We've hardly had days over 85 this July.
It's been a chilly summer...I don't mind, especially being pregnant.
Open windows, minimal sweating and I get to wear the cute pregnancy sweaters that were given to me.

Our garden is growing slooooowly, but surely.
I've been staring at the millions of tomatoes waiting, waiting patiently as they sit green.

I made blueberry jam a couple days ago. 27 jars.
I've made so much jam and jelly this summer....
...strawberry, cherry, blueberry and I still have peach and raspberry to go.
Maybe I'll host a toast party.

We celebrated a very dear friend's birthday.
A surprise party thrown by her four kids...we had so much fun.
Sue is one of those people that lights up a room. Such a happy and fun person to be around.

Her son Drew and his lovely wife Jill hosted the shindig in their incredibly adorable home.
I felt like I was in a Restoration Hardware catalog. and the food...SO good.

and as long as we're talking about them..why don't you check him out here!
....and even though it's on his old album, The Ladder is still one of my favorite songs of his.
Go see a show if he's touring in your area! :)

Summer is flying by...I can't believe we start August this week!
Seriously, where has the time gone?
10 1/2 weeks and we'll be having a new baby...We're so excited!

Hope you're having a great week.
