Here’s what this past week looked like on My Everyday Life: Week 26
Last weekend we went camping!
This is the second time we went camping in Manchester.
Coloring club in my tent!
A trip into town for the “world’s best sandwiches.”
They were not.
Day one: make a floral bouquet for our camp site. My niece Abby, in her red velvet “camping” dress.
She made me a daisy crown.
I always think of my friend Riley when I see blowfish.
My cup for the weekend:
You can see all of the things we ate here:
Welcome to I LOVE LISTS. Let’s surf the internet together:
I am currently typing this with headphones on. I’m listening to the Big Little Lies soundtrack while my child sits next to me with poison oak all over his face. It’s swollen. He’s miserable. Husband has a nasty cold but is also working on a house project that will hopefully be done soon. My garage looks like a tornado it it and laundry keeps coming at me left and right. Just when I finished all of the laundry from camping, I had to wash EVERYTHING because of poison oak. I would take that any day over lice… Sorry to be all June gloom on ya. That’s just how some months/weeks are.
Other than that, June was filled with fun family visits, a Father’s day get-together, a live Kenny G performance with my dad, baseball camp, a camping trip, and a trip to the city via ferry. Throw a few heat waves in there and we have JUNE!
Mostly the letters I’ve been receiving. Thank you to everyone who has sent me mail. I have a lot to catch up on!!! I put most of the postcards up on my wall in my office so that I could look at them and smile.

I also created a little workspace to assemble all of my shipping supplies for selling prints.
Having this space means I have new rules for myself.
This is the space I do most of my writing/computer work/art in.
That means I don’t have all of my crap all over the house anymore. YAAAAAAAAY.
My guest bedroom is still a guest bedroom!
Someone asked me if I’d write a post about Camp Meal Ideas and I thought I’d take a stab at it. Everyone has their own approach to camping. Mine? I like to add little comforts of everyday life into our camping lifestyle. I’ve never done one of those backpacking camping trips where we live off of nothing but what’s on our back. Although I’m tempted to try a minimal camp experience, I’m more of an air mattress
We just went camping up in Manchester over the weekend (which is probably why I need a cleanse right now). One of the reasons why I like our site is that there’s a grocery store not too far away. There are so many things to remember when it comes to camping, that it’s nice that we can buy things like meat and other perishables when we’re up there. Plus, it means we have less to pack. I try to keep things minimal, but it never works out that way.
Happy Monday! We spent the weekend camping and OMG I HAVE SO MUCH LAUNDRY TO DO. We can definitely cross CAMPING WITH FAMILY off the list. My father-in-law is visiting this week from CT. He and Casey are working on some projects around the house. I am hoping I can have him help me with some landscaping. We’ll see! Cooper doesn’t have camp this week so things should be crazy around my house 🙂
Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 25:
Summer Bucket list item CHECKED OFF. Trip into the city on the ferry.
The sun goes down. We watch the waves.
It’s always fun to see the action of city life.
Dinner at Tosca Cafe with Uncle Ryan and Cooper.
The commute home. He was so excited about an ice cream sandwich we got at the ferry building.
The view was beautiful on the ferry. I just wanted to Windex the windows SO BAD.
He brought money so he could buy candy.
We celebrated DADS this week!
My mom made an amazing salmon dish. I should make it on the blog because it’s so good.
It’s an Ina recipe of course.
SO GOOD. She also made a chocolate mousse that was so good I, ate it and didn’t take a photo of it.
I brought the cheese plate.
Making a new arrangement on my parent’s deck.
Welcome to I LOVE LISTS. Here’s a list because I love them!
