                               This photograph was taken in Aruba. I know it doesn't scream tropical island but I like the waves crashing against the rugged coastline and the muted color palette.  Paper Napkins Tablet Case Pickleball Paddle Spiral Notebook Framed Photograph Photography Print                                    Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Redbubble             Zazzle  

                               We will be busy this Father's Day so we thought to celebrate early. On Friday all the mom's in our group sent the dads out for a guys night. They got foot massages, pizza and the played pool.  On Sunday we went out for breakfast..  The boys order the most over the top sugar bombs that we are going to pretend are breakfast. These weren't even the craziest things on the menu. Then we went strawberry picking. We got him this t-shirt and some dark chocolate bars.                                Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Redbubble             Zazzle  

                               I took this photograph way back in 2012 when we visited Aruba . D was two and it was our first beach vacation, also our first caribbean island. I loved the emptiness of the sea save for the one sailboat in the distance. The water shimmering under the sun.  Canvas Print Framed Print Jigsaw Puzzle Pickleball Paddle Tote Bag Notebook Paper Napkin Wall Tapestry Throw Pillow                               Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Redbubble             Zazzle  

We have been busy.. doing what you ask.. I don't know. A lot of this and that.. errands and unfun things.  I steam cleaned all our dining room chairs and the carpet in our family room and the rug in M's office. I did some ironing and hemming.. as I said fun stuff. There has also been paint touch ups and repotting some plants and we had to get our sprinkler system fixed as there were a few leak and no one of garage doors is acting up.  While I am cleaning inside the house I also cleaned up my TBR deleting over 100 books and removed a bunch of non followers on my Instagram and then probably added another 50 books.. lol.  With everything else taking up so much of my time the puzzle is not getting much love. I have had this out for months and I walk by putting in a piece here and there but have no time to sit with it.  For all of those who said give it some time and the birds will come.. you were absolutely right! The birds are coming.           ...

                               Have you heard of 'pareidolia'? It is the psychological tendency to perceive meaningful images, shapes, or patterns in random, ambiguous, or inanimate objects. The most common example is "face pareidolia"—seeing faces in things like electrical outlets, car grilles, or even clouds. I spotted this exposed water pipes, rust stains and I saw the sadness, the crying face. Do you see faces in things?  Coasters Tablet Cover Blanket Framed Print Throw Pillow Playing cards                               Etsy             Instagram             Twitter             Redbubble             Zazzle
