short and sweet

Like that warm pan of brownies sitting in the kitchen begging you to take a bite, my blog has been desperately waiting for me to write. Yet I was afraid to even attempt the next entry since the last post was over a month ago. But just as brownies need to be eaten, so too do blogs need to be written.

So here’s a go at recapping the summer before I jump into writing about my second year in Mexico, which has busily begun.

The short & sweet of summer

1. Fourth of July with the family at Fish Lake was way too much fun seeing all the cousins, grandparents and great-grandparents.
2. Fish Lake itself was a joy and pretty fish-less while as many sun-filled days as possible were spent enjoying the water.

3. Countless trips up to the Twin Cities to spend time with friends there was way fun!

4. A fantastic five days were enjoyed in San Diego with my best friend Steph!

5. Niece and Nephews were way too much fun as were my lovely siblings.
6. Mom returned to Mexico with me for 10 days! ☺


My summer in the States was lots of fun. It was refreshing to see so many people that love and support me. Visiting with friends was so appreciated and I realized how full my life really is with all the great people involved. Though the summer went by a little too quickly, it was short and sweet. (kinda like the pan of brownies….short-lived and very sweet!)
