How Summer Should Look




I love the warmer weather we have enjoyed it all week.  These are shots from Memorial Day.  I am a little behind.  I am trying to get more organized around here so I can be better at blogging.  It is just taking some time.  I have been playing with my camera a lot this week hoping to take better pictures.

How to get Urine/Sweat stains out of your Mattress

A Quick Poll

So I have been reading a LOT lately about how dark backgrounds with light text are difficult to read for many blog readers.  So I changed my blog.  I am not sure that I LOVE it but if you would leave a comment and let me know if this is a little friendlier to your eyes I would appreciate the feedback.  Thanks!
