Hello - Went away for the 4th of July, came back and took a week off from posting. I have a lot to do today so maybe I'll tell you about it some other time. For now, try to decide on your favorite summer look. Happy Bastille Day!

Jennette: We didn't actually get to go tubing. It was on the schedule for Saturday but it wasn't warm enough. It's still at the top of my Summer Fun List.
