It was nice to take a break away from blogging and have one less thing on my plate, but I've been really itching to get back to it! Now I feel refreshed, inspired, and have a great backlog of projects to share from over the past few months.
So what have I been up to? At the start of summer, I put together my Summer Fun List - 2012 Edition with all of the just-for-fun things I wanted to accomplish. Here's a reminder of my summer fun intentions:
I'm happy to report that I've managed to get almost everything on the list checked off (except for: pie - I ate pie, but didn't bake one; bike rides - my lazy summer included lazy legs; road trip- we traveled but I wouldn't classify anything as a road trip; baseball - we watched Phillies games on TV, but didn't make it to the ballpark this season).
But pretty much everything on the list was accomplished (tough, I know, when "ice cream" is on my
to-do list!) Here are some snapshots of just what it was that I was up to:
Ah, I love looking at all those summer snapshots at once, it reminds me of all the wonderful summer memories that took place this year and that I’m a very lucky girl! I just made that photo my computer desktop background so I can savor the memories a little more.
But I did plenty of things around the house too, and made sure to take photos so I can share them now post-hiatus. To give you a sneak peek, my summer house accomplishments include: an update to our staircase, new lighting fixtures, outdoor updates, a fun new chalkboard, and tasty new recipes. I'll be sharing each of these things soon and I'm going to get back to posting regularly, but I'd love to see what you guys have been up to too. So if you have a project you'd like to share, please email me and I'd love to feature it!
How was your summer? What did you check off your fun-to-do-list or productive-to-do-list? Anyone miss me? Please someone who's not related to me tell me that you noticed I was gone!

Glad you're back! I took a break myself and it was good to recharge. Seems like you had a pretty great summer!
I only made it to 1 Phillies game this year and it was in April. It's much harder to find motivation to get to the ballpark when they aren't doing so well.
