Sunshine is a very good thing!

We just spent 4 sun-filled days over in Eastern Oregon at Black Butte Ranch! We rode bikes, swam laps, sat out on the deck, read magazines, did a little yard work, did a little house-organizing, drank margaritas, barbequed, laughed a lot with my sister-in-law and her husband, looked for owls, caught up on phone calls and took deep breaths of the warm, pine-scented air!

Our sweet dog, Ellie, loved to lay out on the deck in the warm sun!

*If you are ever interested in a great vacation house at Black Butte Ranch check out the house that we share with Jim's siblings on VRBO. It is a great place for getting together with a crowd of people that you love.

Friends and Family... part 2

If you ask my friends and family they will tell you that I am not much of a shopper and that I rarely buy anything. I tend to be a jeans, t-shirt and a pair of boots kind of gal. That said, I do want to show you what I bought at Ann Taylor Loft yesterday. And no, that is not me in the photo.

p.s. the blouse was $29.70, the earrings were $14.70 and the ring was $9.80.
