Happy Summer from Forever Cottage

I don't know about you, but summer starts on Memorial Day for me. This year, I am ready - the kids are so busy with big homework projects, class parties, recitals, soccer tournaments, teacher gifts, author celebrations, etc. All the madness makes for one crazy worn out momma.

For me, the lazy days of summer are the days I long for.

We have lived in our cottage for just over a year and have spent considerable time sprucing it up. Thought I would share a picture of our front porch complete with the new sidewalk and the grass my husband has worked tirelessly on make as green and dandelion free as possible. Oh, and those 18 hostas I planted over the weekend. Chances are, if you are visiting this summer, this is where you are likely to find me.



As an added bonus, you get a picture of my dear daughter Emma and our dog Zoe. While out taking photos of the front porch, Emma reminded me her sister had been pictured on my blog but she had not. So...here she is....
