Reading: "Divergent" by Veronica Roth as per Vanessa's suggestion. I love a
good series, especially during the summer time when I have more time to read and
really delve into another world. My girlfriends and I are organizing a book club and
this book will be our first selection.

Loving: having my whole family home more. With school over for both Belle
and Shawn, we seem to have so much more time together, enjoying each other and
the calmness that has overtaken our schedules. Being able to sleep in an extra hour
every morning and play outside as long as we want to in the evenings is just so freeing.

Eating: fresh blackberries that we picked from my aunt's backyard. Is there
anything more summery than that?

Drinking: Purple Acai and Blueberry Green Tea. I've just put the kids to bed,
Shawn is strumming on his guitar, and I'm catching up on blogging and emails with a cup
of tea. This is my Zen time, my quiet moment of the day. The house is quiet and all of
my tasks are done. That is such a peaceful feeling.

Looking forward to: our summer vacation!!! We leave tomorrow morning
for a two week vacation to Arizona. We are flying out west to spend time with
Shawn's family and I could not be more excited! We have so many wonderful
adventures planned including a camping trip in the mountains with the whole
family, swimming in the Colorado River, and a trip to an Old West town. I will not
be bringing my phone or my computer, just my camera. This is a time for our family
to relax, reconnect, and recharge. Our family has been so busy the last few years
with buying our house, bringing Brees into the world, and just dealing with life in
general. This is the first time in 3 years that we have been able to go on vacation, the
first time in a long time that we have been able to put our priorities on hold to go on
an adventure. I'm so excited for this journey with the ones I love, I pray that we will be
able to make unforgettable memories together. I have some really amazing guest
posts lined up for you to enjoy for the next few weeks. Much love to you all!!
