I can’t believe Aug. 1st is this Wednesday! The summer is flying by and we have been on the move! Last week, Dean and I celebrated our four year wedding anniversary and my parents also came to visit to celebrate my Dad’s 60th Birthday.
For the occasion, I made my dad a special Graham Cracker Cream Pie that his mother always used to make for him on his birthday.
Here we are, displaying the pie! I “practiced” making the pie a few weeks ago and I think it turned out really well. The recipe dates back to 1949.
If you would like the recipe, let me know and I will send it to you!
We spent our weekend at the Lake Erie Islands, taking in the sunsets and a carnival that was in town.
Blake rode some rides…
…and tried cotton candy for the first time!
Sunday night, Dean and I went to the Brothers of the Sun Tour at Browns Stadium and saw Tim McGraw and Kenny Chesney. It was amazing and the perfect night for an outdoor concert!
Here I am, in my concert gear, showing off my six month baby bump!
We’ve got a busy week ahead and I hope to order Blake’s “big boy” furniture sometime this week. I’ll let you know what we decide.
My mom always says August reminds her of a big, long Sunday and that’s how I feel as we approach this “last” month of summer. We have so much to do before the hectic fall days begin and I also feel the need to do as much outside as we can!







You look great. The pie looks good. Is it coconut.
Unfortunately, I cannot leave comments on your blog anymore with my e-mail. It has to do with the fact that I have messed up something with wordpress/gravatar, and I thought the passwords were the same, but something messed up. I write for a wordpress blog, and I don’t want to use that in fear of messing something up. I”m just confused so this will have to do.
I’m glad you are still able to comment, though! The pie is graham cracker cream pie with coconut on top. It is so good! How are you?
