Library days got us all excited for the summer fun family passes to some exciting places around town πŸ’š ! Wahoo! 
@srqcountyplay #familyfieldtrip2019 
They have a few passes left ! So go get them . πŸ’š .
.
#sarasotafamily #sarasotalibrary #downtownsar I love you Sarasota ! 
I am so thankful and blessed to live in the sunshine state 🧑 
I haven’t found many fountain play parks here though. Just two so far . This one and a tiny one in Venice . This one is at Marina Jacks . Favorite place . 🧑 Took the boys to the circus yesterday! 
I got a couple tickets from the lady that did my hair! ( thank you !) It was my first time and I loved every moment of it. #loomisbrotherscircus did an awesome job πŸ’› 
My favorite was this moment, I really thou Oh my gosh ! These products ! This woman ! @simply_sarahs_beautycounter ! 
My friend gifted the boys these amazing products and I tell ya, Simon is never going back!
We took these products to the beach with us to shower off yesterday. Later he said & I love love love farmers markets! For the most part to save money on produce. And I love to get out and walk and meet farmers and local artisans and talk about their products and businesses ❀️ I love the boys to hear their stories as well because mos “Life is what our thoughts make it” Marcus Aurilius .
And I’m the best artist in Sarasota πŸ‘©πŸΌ‍🎨. .
But... yeah... my thoughts had taken me to some dark places these last few months. The uncertainties, overwhelming stress of it They are finally all at the age where they like to take walks on the beach ! They love exploring rock, under rock, around rocks , bringing home rocks .., ya know , because we need more rocks πŸ€” 
Any ways, we took a long walk down siesta key... like a Cat mom πŸ’™πŸ˜ΊπŸ˜»πŸ˜½πŸ’™
. Hi 
Blog post with all the office space deets is up! 
Kittens not included . Yes, my boys have been asking for tea every morning with too much honey. They see me walking straight to the French press each morning and making myself coffee. So now they open their beautiful eyes, drag themselves into the kitchen and ask  for thei Got a hair cut πŸ’™ 
So.... I do things to my hair when it needs to be done and I can’t get it done ...
And so I cut my hair the other day ..... I took it straight to the front and “chop”
Lol 
Then for a few days I just pinned it. Cou Finished my little office nook πŸ’› all on a budget. Stay tuned to a blog post , I’ll link everything and tell ya how to stay on budget and have s space you absolutely love. .
.
#decoratingonabudget #budgetdecor #bloggermom #mommyblogger #fulltim “In the morning, Oh Lord, You will heat my voice; in the morning I will order my prayers to You and eagerly watch.” Psalm 5:3. .
Thinking about how when we ask, we should already be thankful to receive. Because Father God is good and He h Oh my gosh ! 😳 I have a mamas boy ! Wow . 
He does not allow me to have any “me” time what so ever . He sits with me at church, and is super good. He doesn’t go to VBS because he tells me he wants to “spend time with me&rdquo Oh my gosh ! I forgot my swim suit today ! We went to church, and that’s 30 min away, near the beach, so I wanted to take the boys to the beach after. Aghhhhhhhh!!!!! They promised to wear their floaters the entire time so I can watch them from Ok... @sn0025 ! It felt like you and I picked up like we’ve been bff’s for all these 19 years of not seeing each other, and our boys seemed to act like they’ve known each other forever ! That was cool to watch ! They have to be pen I’m so excited ! We got to spend the day with this girl here and her family! I haven’t seen her like in real life in 20 ish years ! 
We lived on the same street in PA and had the best time being kids ! Gosh you guys, it felt like she was You guys ! 
My first Art Show in Florida! One of my pieces in an art show ! And I was so excited! Took the boys to the reception too, they ate all the cheese and crackers and grapes in toothpicks . Yeah- they liked it. Lol. Till we had to walk away f Who doesn’t take walks with their kids around the block and doesn’t bring pruning scissors to cut down random greenery or wild flowers ? 
Just try it. It’s fun. πŸ˜ŠπŸ‘ŒπŸ½πŸ˜Ž .
My favorite was a time my boys and I were driving and there I’m starting a list of beaches ( pros and cons about each), Florida beaches that is πŸ’™ on my blog . Got my favorite beach on there now 😊 
Siesta Key.
