This week in pictures
First of all. We have a fence. It's finished. Those are beautiful words. The fence is done.
This is a picture Ariel drew of the guy who serves me coffee at Dunkin'
Donuts. I don't know what is more disturbing, the fact that he's so
much a part of her life that she's thinking of him and drawing pictures
of him or the fact that it looks just like him.
A delicious snack. Seriously, it hit the spot. Cinnamon-y graham crackers dipped in coffee. perfect. But then again, I have a strange love for graham crackers..
What? It says whole grain and calcium, it's a little healthy. Right?
Right?
My favorite picture of the weekend. Ariel felt very old Saturday night helping me prepare dinner. She set the table, very thoroughly washed a tomato and washed dishes. And was pleasant about it, too.
Just look at this glorious bag from Kimberlee Faith's. I won this a while back from Rocks in my Dryer. I picked the two patterns, upgraded the size of the bag and added the initial. I LOVE this bag. It came on Friday and it has already gone to the beach. It only took the post office THREE WEEKS to get it to my house.
Oh well, they were forgiven when I opened the box and found this masterpiece. If you are ever in the market for a beautiful, custom purse or handbag, consider going to Kimberlee Faith's. I definitely will.
Another favorite of the weekend.
Will the pictures ever stop? I know that's what you're thinking.
And finally, we started off the day by going to the beach. It was a perfect day. Very hot with a nice breeze. We are lucky to live so close to such a nice one.
Well, at least Brian, Ariel and I feel that way. Racecar happens to hate sand, water and heat. He had a blast, as you can tell.


















I went to the beach and posted way too many pics about it as well. We have alot in common.
Love the pic of Ariel. BEAUTIFUL!

We were at the beach on Saturday, too, but later in the day. Did you know they make you get out of the water at 6 pm?! We'll probably be heading back again this week as the kids are now huge fans of water- finally!

I LOVE that new tote of yours! May have to get me one.
That picture of Ariel washing dishing is so beautiful and precious. And I chuckled about the picture of the Dunkin man. Mmmm they have the BEST coffee.

a) I think the dunkin' man has a brother who works at Starbucks and gets me my cow-pee because that picture? It looks just like HIM.
b) Ariel is looking gosh darn old next to Brian--she is THAT tall!?!?!

Yay, FENCE! I bet you are so relieved to have that done!
O.K. Why on Earth would you continue to go to Dunkin Donuts when the guy looks like THAT? That's a scary, scary picture...
And that pic of Ariel is awesome. It has a 1950s flair to it, love it!

I love that picture of Ariel at the counter...it's so homey and old-fashioned. I can't wait until my little girls are old enough to really help do more than hand me dishes from the dishwasher.

You have got to print out and frame the black and white of Ariel washing dishes - it is BEAUTIFUL! You captured such a wonderful picture. WOW! Such talent!

P.S. I am changing my name to Bynette and stealing your new bag! Love it.

I love the photo of your daughter at the sink! You must enter that one in a meme.
