July Goals

June was exhausting, but so much fun! Summer is in full swing. The week at the Outer Banks was such a treasured time and I miss it so much. I always have withdrawal after a vacation like that one! 

 On the Calendar This Month:

1. A low-key July 4th week! I'm taking a few half days this week while Cam is at home with me. Taking him to see the Jurassic World movie tomorrow afternoon!

2. Articles Club & Girl's Night!

3. A date night with Brian to see comedian Nate Bargatze! 

4. A week of overnight camp for Cam.

What I Read in June:

On June 26, I finished reading the entire Bible for the second time in my life!!! I started in October 2022 and have been reading almost-daily for about 3 years! Proud of this accomplishment. It hit different this time around in this particular season of my life.

What I'm Loving Lately:

The Paint by Numbers canvas I am currently working on! I cannot stop telling people about this!!! 

This may be my favorite Amazon purchase ever. I did a lot of research before ordering the kit from the Texture of Dreams shop.  I sent in a photo and the custom Paint by Number canvas was delivered about a week later. I am really enjoying painting each night for a couple hours while sometimes listening to a podcast or watching a sermon online from when I missed church last month. It's easy, relaxing, and I think the finished product will look great! I paid about $60 and it included the canvas, paint, frame, and brushes. 

I selected a photo of our kids at the lake. I'm putting it into the universe that I will one day own a lake house and my painting will hang on the wall, LOL!

I'll upload pictures of the final painting next month, but here's what it looked like upon arrival:

Goals for July (yep, same goals as June!)

1. Blog 2x/week 
2. Strength train 3x/week. 
3. Order photo prints and finish Cam's baby book (and work on Brooke's baby book!)
