Beach Favorites

It's been a while since I've posted but I am really gonna try to do better!  Summer is flying by and I just  can't seem to keep up!  When I was younger,  I remember hearing so many times, "just wait, when you grow up, time will fly by"!  It seems they were right!  Oh how I wish I could slow it down a little!  My sweet Kailyn just turned 4 and will be starting school next year, so  hard to believe!  Sara will be 2 in December and growing like a weed!  It's funny how they have such different personalities, Kailyn is so laid back and easy going, where Sarah is very determined and independent, she wants what she wants when she wants it and the girl knows how to get it, sometimes much to Kailyn's dismay!  Her favorite words right now are NO and Mine! It's so fun to watch them interact. They play so well together most of the time, but then again, they are sisters!
Since I haven't taken a lot of new photos this summer, I'm going to revisit some of my favorite past summer photos, and of course a couple of recent favorites of the my girls!
 
 
My favorite Florida tablecloth from my collection

Hi Rebecca, Love your beachy treasures and vignettes. The girls are darling. Yes, summer seems to be flying by this season. It's so hot and I hate to say I'll be ready for fall soon!!
Have a great rest of the week. xo

I'm sitting here reeling from the news that Kailyn is 4 and Sara almost 2. Time is flying by so fast!
My fav photo is your blue truck with the shell...after the girls, of course! Looking forward to fall and cooler temps but we are enjoying rain this week so I'm loving that! Glad that you'll be blogging more, too. (I'm one to talk...I've been playing hooky this summer.)
xo, T.
