Hi everyone!
Hope everyone has been having an absolutely lovely summer so far! I know I’ve been kind of spotty with the posts lately, so I figured now was a good time for a catch-up post!
So what have we been up to lately? Well…
My family moved to Georgia! I know this happened a while ago, but they’ve been living with us for a little over a month (all in one room- bless their hearts!) It’s been a great ride so far, and I am so glad to finally be with my family again after seven long years of living apart! It can really wear on a family to be so far apart, especially with my sister, since I went off to college when she was only 1.5 years old. We’ve had a lot of sister time to catch up on ๐
I’ve been reading… a lot.ย I finished everything on my Summer Reading List and am now about to start Divergent by Veronica Roth… anyone out there read this yet? Anyone have any new book recommendations?
We’ve been going on trips: We went on a staycation to Stone Mountain, and then a week-long trip to NYC. Now, we are planning a trip to Austin for my cousin’s wedding in September, and we’re so excited for another much-needed vacation!
How’s life been treating you lately?
XO,
Amanda
