Summer Wrap Up

What was your favorite thing you did alone this summer?
Probably Blogger Bash or last Monday when I went paddle boarding and had a day of really fun activities that were just for me.

That’s me in the back!

What was your favorite thing you did as a family this summer?
We were homebodies this year, but any afternoon we spent by the pool was a good one.

What books did you read this summer?
I read a bunch of duds this summer. Most I didn’t even bother finishing. 
What do you WISH you had done this summer?

I wish we had planned better. We wanted to take a trip but it never happened. I think if we had planned we would have done more. And I wish we had done a summer concert with friends it’s a tradition and we didn’t do it this year. 

What movies did you see this summer (if any)?

I saw 2 movies that I loved. Chef which was so heart warming and funny I can’t wait till it comes out on DVD so I can share it with John. I had really low expectations for Guardians of the Galaxy and ended up loving it.


Where did you travel this summer?

I went to Philly for Disney Social Media Moms and to New York for Blogger Bash and then from there to North Jersey for Wyndham Weekends.


What was your favorite treat (as in dessert) this summer?

I love my cupcakes but my favorite treat was probably these Belgium waffles from Waffles De Lys at Truckerton last weekend.

What did you celebrate this summer?

My 33rd birthday. 32 was a great year I’m not sure if 33 can top it.

Did you grow anything this summer?

Does the blog count? Cause I’ve worked hard on growing that this summer with mixed results.

What is a favorite post (if you blog) that you wrote this Summer?

This one about online friendships stands out to me.

What is a favorite photograph that you took this summer?

I did a whole photo series this summer, so it’s hard to choose just one. But here are a few.

Love this picture with my Blogger Bash roomies and the bellhop and all our stuff and the infamous hashtag.
I love this one of him in front of the seafood market in town. He’s just so grown up and handsome.
Long before Sprint started using the term “framily” in commercials these people have been my framily. Love them. Missing a few faces like John who took the picture.

What do you want to do next summer?

I want to plan better. I would like to take a trip with our friends we did that a few years ago and it was fun. We keep talking about doing another so I want to make plans to do it.

What was your favorite thing you did as a family this summer? What was your favorite dessert this summer?

    Happy belated birthday!! I used to love afternoon pool time when I was a kid. That was always the best. It sounds like you had a great summer and I know what you mean about needing to plan better. Same thing happened with us. I have no idea how summer slipped by!

    I loved Blogger Bash! Forgot how dang much I miss NYC on a cool summer morning or the craziness that is midtown at midday 🙂 Favorite dessert? Not a fair question since I have a cupcake lady at my 2 local farmers markets! A good excuse to get healthy foods and support local economy, but it's all just a front for my cupcake addiction lol…
