Did anyone have the post 4th of July blues? With all of our children with us in the mountains, it was rough Sunday when they had to jet off to their schools and work schedules. And, when our middle boarded his flight I returned home and ate my way thru a Costco size bag of Kettle chips. Do you know the ones I am talking about? I was elbow deep into that bag.

I pulled myself together when I finalized this one-day project. It was a great distraction and seriously it took one day. The kids will enjoy this room when they are here for Thanksgiving. wink

I got the cutest, softest t-shirt with our favorite dog breed on it for my son. I found it here… it was likely on my Instagram ad feed. I always follow back.
