Hello, August!

It was about 99 degrees here today (not much less) and Seth had an afternoon baseball camp! Whew, he's a trooper and loved it anyway!

Today was also our last challenge in our LOaD challenge over under the Willow tree. If you have a chance, check out some of the incredible layouts done by fellow willow ladies! Here's my last one. I was inspired to do this layout by old photos I rescued from a "bad" album of my parent's Chow Chow, Ming, who was like my dog, too. And by Colorstory #7.
And here is one I enjoyed quite a bit (the challenge was stamping, and I stamped the background and a few other things):
And I've done a little etsy shopping lately as well (insert shameless but genuine plug here). I bought these adorable little scrabble tile necklaces the other day (one as a little pick-me-up for my sis, the owl for me and the other as a gift for a friend). These are from the etsy shop Home Studio and I love them (really, I do)!
