Why I am taking the summer off...

So I am not sure if anyone has noticed but I have been a little absent lately.  Things at my house have been so busy that I feel I can barely keep up. We have so many family functions that are going on that we are rarely at home.  We decided to host a 24th of July party with our friends and neighbors and that kept me busy with clean up and prep.  To top everything off we have gone back to school...  I have lots of fun projects that I would like to share and hopefully this summer break will help me get caught up.
