You guys! Remember how I told you our main a/c quit working? And how I was dreading the possibility of it being DAYS until our new one arrived? Well, we ordered the new one just yesterday and here it sits, on our front porch, waiting for my husband to come home and install it.
But I can’t help More >

So I’m pretty sure it really IS possible for a human to melt.
Like the wicked witch off the Wizard of Oz, only without the pointy hat and the whole being-a-witch thing. I’m melting! Melting! (If you click on the link, fast forward to about 3 minutes and 15 seconds to see the melting scene. Because who More >

So supposedly, the temperature around here is supposed to be in the mid to upper ’80’s for the next few days. I hope so. I really, really hope so. I know, I’m totally kvetching over here, but guys! I’m miserable! Don’t get me wrong- I can handle the heat. In fact, I relish relaxing in More >

These are some pictures I took on the Fourth of July Weekend. Oh, and the last picture? The one where Nathan is smiling happily at the camera? Yeah, that lasted about three seconds.

It doesn’t take much to keep Nathan happy outside. As you all know, he loves sitting on the porch, looking out over the rails, and crunching any rogue leaves in his hands. No matter what mood he’s in, taking him outside guarantees a few smiles!

One of my dear friends got married this weekend! It was a lovely outdoor wedding, and thankfully, it didn’t rain too hard… unlike what my fellow Tennesseans to the west are experiencing right now with the crazy flooding in Nashville. My friend wore a wedding gown that her grandmother sewed and wore to her own wedding, then passed More >

It was another beautiful East Tennessee day, and as my husband was enjoying the view while looking out our back window, he noticed a woodpecker in our backyard. The pictures are a little blurry because the woodpecker was quite a ways up the hill, plus my husband was shooting the picture behind a window. But still, it was pretty neat More >
