The weekend was really nice! The beach was beautiful on Saturday and then dinner outside on the dock Saturday night. Live music, friends etc. Then the weather got a bit ugly. So we decided to go to Annapolis on Monday for the day. What a great town. And of course I dropped by the pink crab--the Lilly Store. With the clouds etc I have not been feeling particularly like summer dressing but walk through any Lilly store always brightens my day. We had lunch on the water and really enjoyed the town.

Husband did not have ID so we could not walk onto the Navy Campus--bummer. I'm reading The Shack right now. Has anyone read it? It is a little bit more religious than I'm used to but I'm not done yet. Love to hear any opinions.

Back to work! Hope everyone has a wonderful Tuesday.

  3. Sounds like a good weekend! The weather here wasn't great, either. Rain on and off throughout the weekend. Oh, well - time with family and friends is always great no matter what the weather!

  11. I've heard raves about that book, although one friend said it was completely different than what she was expecting and said it kinda depressed her. ??

    I'm with Princess Freckles. (chanting) "We want pics! We want pics!"

  12. 'The Shack' tore me apart. Even though the writing is not the best technically-speaking, the story draws you in. But ... I truly can't take that kind of story right now ... I couldn't sleep at night while reading it ... or for days after.

  13. I just added that book to my Amazon wish list. But I will have to be in a stronger mood to read it. It sounds like it is so heart wrenching.

    Lilly always perks me up too! I have a fall line dress and it's so colorful I usually wear in only spring and summer ;)

  15. Annapolis is gorgeous - what a great place to spend labor day weekend! I read The Shack earlier in the year -- it was pretty disturbing & heart wrenching throughout, and very religious--but interesting -- especially how they depicted the trinity.
    thank you for being one of my first followers -- its encouraging me to keep blogging! xxo

  18. I enjoyed the Shack. It's a deep river and you have to just go there. It's really heavy but amazing!

  19. I got stuck in the middle of the Shack and haven't gone back yet. It's definitely worth the read. Heartwrenching but deeply touching.

    Thanks for stopping by!!! We're at the point where we must paint the pool and re-tile. A tile falls off every other week.
