So, apparently it was stormy last night
  Yowza. So yesterday was date night, double date night to be precise. A scheduled dinner and movie date was enhanced as rain, thunder and excessive lightning was added to the menu.   Seeing as how the storm started around 4pm, we were able to get a fantastic view of the lightning’s affect during midday lighting.

Happy Birthday, Sunshine
Very few people can overwhelm me with happiness like this little munchkin. Despite our age difference, we remain some of the closest siblings I know, and I’ve been so grateful for that. No matter how vast the kilometers or oceans that have separated us over the years, she has remained my biggest fan, and I hers. My little sister isn’t so little anymore, but she’ll always be my...

June Desktop Wallpapers
This is going to be short and sweet: 3D and flowery, if that’s what you’re into (via Smashing Magazine) Or bold and significant (via Smashing Magazine) In all honesty, I have yet to change my background for June. Things are hectic, and design is at the bottom of my current to accomplish list. When I do get around to it, I have a feeling I’m going to go with the below...

You can get this wallpaper here. In the spirit of royalty, I cannot exclude a simple but elegant contribution found on Simple Desktops by Lauren Morris. You can get this wallpaper...

Delicious reheated coffee!

4 months and 3 days I have lived here, and today was the first time I was too lazy to make anything but a sandwich for supper. I can live with that.
