I'm leaving on a jet plane...

Yes indeed! My hubby and I are headed out for the weekend to cruise to Mexico with two of our friends. We are so excited and are looking forward to some relaxation in the sun...and of course a few pina colodas in hand too! The bags are packed and I am ready...Viva la Mexico!!!

Fireflies..

So, while we were in Pennsylvania last weekend, I saw my first ever fireflies...It was amazing and I immediately turned into a little girl running around the yard chasing them. (I think my husbands family thought I was crazy). It was the coolest thing.

Life, Amish and Andy Warhol....

Last weekend my husband and I took a trip to Pennsylvania. My husband's grandmother passed away on July 4th so we went back to attend her services and have a celebration of her 93 years of life. She was one of the most selfless people I have ever met. She was Italian and was an amazing cook. About four years ago, I got the opportunity to cook with her and learn some of her most delectable recipes. (And no, I will not be sharing any of them...if I did, I would probably be disowned by my husbands family). She will be missed....

While we were in Pennsylvania, my husband drove me around to see the Amish land...oh how I love taking a peek into their lives. Sometimes I think I was meant to be Amish....I mean I love little white farmhouses, I like gardening, I love hanging my laundry out to dry.... and I love their baked goods.....

We drove some more and I couldn't help myself from taking a picture of an Amish house...
Then on our last 2 days, we traveled to Pittsburgh, PA to meet up with some friends for dinner and of course I HAD to go to the Andy Warhol museum before catching our flight back home on Sunday. For years I have only dreamed of going to this museum...and finally I had my opportunity. I had to drag my husband as he is not a huge fan of pop art, but he cooperated and I think actually liked it a bit. We snuck a pic....

13 little ones...

I know...aren't they absolutely adorable? These are 3 of them..there were 10 more and I got to spend the morning photographing these little ones...They are Multigen Labradoodles. There are 8 girls and 5 boys. They will be available mid-August. They share the same mother as our sweet little Nico. Get more info here.

Fun with the hipstamatic..

The Hipstamatic...an app that I am in love with on the i-phone.
Check it out if you have an i-phone. It is so cool....

Happy 4th
