It's me, Charity

What I'm Eating this Week: So it seems like by the end of the month I really need to go grocery shopping! HA! Add to that I will be with family for the Holiday so I hate to buy much when I won't be around to eat it! I'm going crazy eating Watermelon, by far my favorite fruit! Making different Pasta salads, Pancakes, and this morning I had scrambled eggs for breakfast. What I'm Reminiscing About: Nothing? What I'm Loving: Summer. I love my schedule in summer, even if I do have to get up earlier than normal. I actually have a day where I get done in the afternoon which is crazy rare. I am always teaching late into the evening. So it's been a nice change of pace! And even though the heat does bad things to my body when I'm outside for too long, I love warm weather and the ease of going places without snow and ice! What I've been up to: Teaching and trying to hit my reading goal for the summer. Spoiler alert, I need to get with it! And chasing ...

 Finally getting caught up on happenings on the ol blog!  A week ago we had our Block Party at my churches new location! We finally are in our new building and it's beautiful! So we had a block party to celebrate! I invited Audra and Addie, and Addie's Nana just so happened to be in town visiting so I finally got to meet her! My friend and Piano Student Sarah met us there and we had a great time! I also ran into another student and FORGOT TO TAKE A PICTURE!! Who am I???! I will blame it on the heat!  I'm not sure if #SelfieSunday is a thing, but I'm trying to make it one on my Instagram. After church Selfies in front of my window give the best light! I'm also really into wearing dresses (Sundresses mostly) to church this summer. It is HOT outside!  By Far Addie's FAVORITE part of this shindig was the Puppy she met. Moses. Yes, the Dog's name was Moses. And he was ADORABLE!  I couldn't seem to get a great picture of her loving...

 Last Week Two Weeks ago Audra and Addie came over for Dinner and a Girls night! I had missed my Addie Jane So much!! She looked so much bigger to me! Last year when she was a wee babe, we had a swimming and snacks afternoon. She warmed up to my swimming pool and had fun kicking her little feet. So we thought she would enjoy swimming this year! Well, I think my pool water was too cold for her delicate sensibilities as we put her legs in it and she immediately wanted out! She did however quite enjoy sticking her hand in, and then putting her wet hand in her mouth!  What a goober!( Thankfully for her there were no pool chemicals in my pool at that time!) What she did really like however, was playing with my hose. I have a fabric hose so it's really soft and light weight. I turned the water on enough for it to spray out but not full force and she had the best time spraying the water and then bunching the hose in her hand to get the water to stop! ...

 Playing Catch up on the Blog Again! First up is Roman's 1'st Birthday Party Last weekend! Roman belongs to one of my dear friends, Jboz, who really is more like family than a friend. She has a key to my house if that tells you anything! I feel so loved when I am included in family Celebrations with the Boz family, they truly are my second family! Pictured above is a cupcake and the best doggone dip I've ever had. It was some sort of cookie dough dip with chocolate crackers. Oh man, I have GOT to get the recipe to it! SO GOOD!! As usual Jboz had everything looking perfect and beautiful! I, of course, took zero pictures of the decorations. #Fail  Buuuut I did get some pictures of the birthday boy! He was just not quite sure what to think of all these people in his house. I had to laugh when it was cake time, it was like the papparazzi! I was standing on tippy toes at the back of the crowd trying to see. (and I'm a tall girl!)  He slowly got the idea of what ...
