Today is the last Monday before our semi-annual beach vacation and let me tell you it can not get here soon enough! We are leaving Friday and taking some time to see family before heading to the OBX for a week of much-needed down time (and then it’s the busiest wedding month of the year!). We will spend all day fishing (Scott) or reading (Carri) and enjoying the best seafood we can find. But until then there is plenty to do including 2 shoots, a few meetings, and getting everything wrapped up from last month, so this week should fly.

I spent this weekend trying to get ahead business-wise so I can turn off all technology for the week so that mostly was editing with old episodes of The West Wing and Scandal – what can I say I’m a sucker for political dramas :) And of course recovering from the website mayhem that was last week. Happy to be up and running again! And since last week we were forced to shut down, I may have an extra post or two for you this week!

But now here are some musings for your Monday:

• I have most of these reactions every time I watch Chopped too.
• I told someone last week that I am a high-functioning introvert because they didn’t believe I was really introverted. But maybe this article explains it better :) I don’t resonate with all the points but some definitely hit home.
• For those of you that pack a lunch :)
• Did you see the 100 years of wedding cakes that circulated last week? I have never seen one like the 2016 version though Fresh Baked I’m sure could do it! But I’m must admit I love the simplicity of the 1936 version. Which one was your favorite?

That’s all for now, but stay tuned for a fun full week! And speaking of cake…this is ours! If you missed our one-year anniversary post last week (understandable in all the crazy) check it out here!
