Memorial weekend...

It is that time of year again. The smell of sunscreen permeates the air, my sister is going cherry wild, and PFunk is starting to drink Miller Chill. Summer is upon us, but somehow, God has blessed us with a GLORIOUS 85 degree day in late May.

Today I am sitting poolside, watching PFunk pumice the side of the pool, while I blog, read my book and drink cucumber water... in an attempt to make up for the massive amounts of wine and beer that was consumed over the long weekend. We have determined that living in the heat has justified our "vacation" lifestyle.

We lounge around in bed all day...

Take naps morning noon and night....

Blog by the pool in my LARGE hat...

Read books, eat cucumbers, drink cucumber water

and just hang by the pool in general.

Who could ask for a better life? If only it were really a vacation and we didn't have to go back to work tomorrow.

Des's Italy

My BFF and her hubby ventured on an Italian Vacation I can only dream of... they went all over and drank oodles of wine... and saw beautiful things and fell in love all over again. The images are so spectacular I had to share them. Her camera takes fantastic pics... I think she said there were settings that made them look this way, but regardless, amazing shots.

Here are a few postcard-esque photos.

 

Two of my VERY favorite people doing one of my VERY favorite things.

I think these are the colors in the are the colors dreams are made of.

I am sure he was singing "Emily, we wish you were here in Italy drinking wine and eating food with us!"

This is what I see when I think of Romantic Italy

She will conquer the world...

 

 

Perhaps after she conquers the world she will be able to Vacation to Italy with her best friend. What do you say miss Gar?
