It’s hard to believe this is the last day of August. The summer months always seems to fly by, but this summer felt different. This summer included more time at home, more time outside, and more time with the people we love. I recently got back from a week in Glen Arbor, Michigan with my family, and that time away was such a blessing. A week spent soaking up the last remaining summer days, swimming in Lake Michigan, kayaking the Crystal River, and roasting marshmallows for s’mores. Goodbye August and cheers to a summer that allowed me to slow down and appreciate what’s most important in life.

Things I’m Loving Right Now
Cherry Republic is one of our favorite places to shop in Glen Arbor. I picked up this green cherry salsa and it’s amazing with chips or on tacos.
While I was up north I picked up a stoneware berry basket (similar to these) and it’s perfect for my garden tomatoes.
I used Custom Ink to create t-shirts for my family. Since we celebrated 30 years going to Glen Arbor it was fun to have matching t-shirts. Creating the shirts was super easy and I loved the quality of the product.
