Gypsy
It's been awhile since I've been here..life happens and before you know it, a year has already flown by. So many changes..
This summer in particular was one of the best though. Kinda sad to see it go. My best friend came for a visit from California, and we decided to do an impromptu photo shoot on a gray day here in Oregon. So much fun, and a perfect reminder to always stay inspired and know it's ok to get a little crazy.

and as summer comes to a close...
South Padre Island, TX.
Kicking off summer, memorial day weekend.
My love and I
Today was such a gorgeous, and I mean GORGEOUS day..we have endured over 60 days of 100 + degree heat here in Oklahoma, and today was a whopping 82! It was heavenly..And made me realize that summer is coming to an end, and fall is just around the very thankful corner. But despite the scorching heat, it really has been a most fabulous summer. I thought I would post a bit more summer photo fun pics, taken from my phone. Using my new most favorite apps, hipstamatic and the awesome instagram.

our Swiss adventure
One of my very best friends all the way back from high school, just moved to Switzerland with her husband and two girls. We somehow managed to get away this summer to go see them. Ahhh..the BEAUTY of that place. It was absolutely breathtaking, every direction you turned. It was a trip of a lifetime. I imagined myself shopping at flea market after flea market, and loading up on all kinds of treasures. But instead (sigh).., found my self lounging around the lake most afternoons, eating lots of delicious food, wine and of course, chocolate. As a matter of fact, that is the only thing I managed to bring back home with me. LOTS of chocolate.
Nevertheless, I would change not a thing.
Here are a few pictures from our adventure...
The three amigos..our daughter in the center.
Lounging on the shores of Lake Geneva. The girls decided there
were probably mermaids in that lake. And affectionately named
them "The Mermaids of Lac Leman". This is a sculpture they made
for them.
Farmers Market across the border in France. A food lovers paradise..
Buttery, flaky, almond-y goodness!
Gruyere
And what better place to have fondue and a meat platter?
My husband and I enjoying a little after dinner limoncella.
And of course, walking through Geneva, the girls had
to stop and observe a fashion show in one of the shop
windows...such fashionistas.
