Thankful Thursday!
They might drive each other crazy, pick on each other, antagonize, and yes even say a few unkind words... But, at the end of the day they apologize, kiss and make-up and truly adore each other... I think their nicknames for one another will stick forever... "Big Sissy" and "Rarby." I have been blessed to have a front row seat in watching these two precious sisters, bond, blossom and love one another in the past two years. I am very thankful for this gift!Blessings,

Veggies!!!
Jeff and the girls have been working hard on our first vegetable garden this summer. Until today we have had one small green pepper and a few cherry tomatoes. Well I guess, our garden liked our un-seasonably cool weather. I came home to this and my happy gardeners! Check out their presentation!
YUM!!!!

The Caddy in her...
This weekend Aunt Bop and Aunt Lisa are blessing us at the cabin. We are having so much fun! At the moment The Pearl is learning how to play a mean game of Crazy Eights with her Aunts... But, the highlight of the day for this Mom was having her join us for 18 holes of golf!!!! Lisa and Barb are two of my favorite golf partners... We invited Ainsley to join us... Since it was a quiet "fall" day at the course she was able to hit a few balls, drive the golf cart, tend the flag, wash our balls, and overall share in the joy of friends playing golf on a wonderful Saturday. I have always hoped my girls would take up the game someday. I think this was a great way to get introduced to it!!!! I love these mother/daughter days where things I love are discovered and understood!!! Perhaps one day she will be a golf loving photographer!!

Ruby Models Her New Jacket!
Ok - probably not a big secret to all of you, that I love to shop for cute clothes for my girls... Yes, and hairbows for Ruby Mei too!!! My favorite places to buy for the Pearl & The Ruby are Nordstrom's (the anniversary sale every year which we already hit for shoes!), a local boutique called Goodnight Moon, Matilda Jane, Crew Cuts and TARGET!!! I love Target for me too!! I think my entire summer wardrobe is from Target! Of course I love to find great deals..This adorable OshKosh jacket was found hanging on the rack at Target this past week. Don't you agree it was screaming Ruby's name? Even the Pearl agreed her sister HAD to have it!!!! So, since we are having the coldest July 16th on record, my assistant (The Pearl) and I got Her Rubiness to model it... I think we told her she might be in a fashion magazine!!! Ok - a little fib, but it worked!
So, if you need a fun fall coat for your pre-schoolers out there, go to the nearest Target "Boutique" near you!!!! But, if you need a great bow, go to weeones.com!
Lastly, thanks for all the comments on Ruby's watermelon bikini... Someone asked me where we got it.. It actually was a gift for Ainsley five years ago. The brand is Le Top.
Have fun shopping!

Just the Girls!
We had a very fun vacation day yesterday visiting some friends who have a cabin close to us. Barb and I met in college and we have re-connected in the past year through BSF. She was my BSF Leader and we had an amazing year. We got our families together over the 4th and had a great time. Barb and Ellie were up north alone, and so they called us for "play date" yesterday. It was so fun to get together again. Thanks Barb and Ellie for a great day!!!! We loved your cabin, and we loved spending time with you!
Blessings,
