Watermelon = Summer!

When I think of summer foods the first thing that comes to my mind is watermelon! Besides everything BBQ.
Who doesn't love the juicy sweet taste of watermelon! There is really so much more you can do with watermelon! Drinks alone are endless! Here are a few of me favorites I found.

Is it that time again? Summer? Really? Already?
OK, I can handle that! It's already in the 90's here so I suppose that is a sign! My vegetables and fruits are flourishing and I'm anxious to start harvesting them. Now if only the wind would go away! Z is out of school and about to start swimming lessons along with B and our "parent and tot" lessons. This summer is going to be kinda of hectic but I'm ready for whatever comes our way!
Here are some of my plans for the summer....

Fabulous Friday - Summer Edition!!

Ahhh school is out now it's time for the FUN to begin! Relaxing by the water, boating at the lake, camping in the woods. Sounds great right? Ahh unfortunately this will be a very different summer for us this year. Hubby is in the Paramedic class and July when he starts his clinical time, summer time fun will go away to just about none for him! It's OK though, the outcome will be awesome! Besides that there is other big changes happening around here. More details in the coming weeks! To kick off the memorial weekend here are some awesome ideas!

Milestones

Today my little girl graduated Kindergarten! *sniffle* *sniffle*
Has it been one whole school year already?! It feels like yesterday I was getting her ready for her first day of class! The children made their hats and they each received a little diploma. Afterwards they were handed out awards. It was a small, nice little ceremony. I may have teared up once... or twice...
Here's to a wonderful year in Kindergarten and off she goes to first grade!


A small something I put together for the teacher!


Ready for the big day!

It's Burger Time....

This past week it was the hubby's Birthday. To celebrate the occasion I decided to make a little something different instead of the traditional cake. He is a big burger lover. I mean seriously a double bacon cheese lover. I swear he could live off those. Briiing on the heart attack right? Anyways I came across this idea from Bakerella and saved it for when the time was right! The process was incredibly easy and the outcome was awesome! He definitely was surprised by it and loved every bite, even though it wasn't beef! The one difference I did was instead of the sugar cookies for the "fries" I used peanut butter cookies (one of his favorite). And I also added an "M" to the "fries" for his initial.
