Favorite Things 2015

It’s officially the last day of the summer months and to be honest i’m not mad about it. There were a lot of favorite moments this summer, so i’m just going to highlight everything because I just want to remember it all and I couldn’t pick a favorite one anyways 🙂

May

Dad took me to Boston to see our Sox play the Yanks at Fenway. BEST way to start summer.

Emily and Tyler came home. Tyler brought his roommate and the 4 of us were together basically all week.

And we spent a couple weeks in Iowa just tipping back bottles of Vodka 😉 (it was a joke), four-wheeling out on the farm, playing with puppies at my aunt and uncle’s dog farm, and playing with my little Tommy.

  3. I love that picture of you at the wedding! You look stunning and I love that dress on you! It looks like you had a full and fantastic summer! Isn’t is crazy to look back and see all that you did in just 3 or so months? I hope the fun only continues for you into fall! Silly question but I want to know what your favorite pens are that you included in your giveaway. As a therapist, I write ALOT and love finding good pens 😉
