Summer Series: The Recap

I bet you were wondering what happened to week 6 of 6? Well, it came and went in a blink of an eye, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I can't even remember the details anymore but there were playdates, sleepovers, tickle fights and visits to the far off land of Chicago. 

Let me tell you how much I love this city. It is my kind of city. It calls for me...Truly truly. NYC had an energy that didn't quit, Chicago has a great pulse but you can always find a nearby place to take a mental time out. And please, it has Lake Michigan. What's not to love.

I resurrected my New York walking legs and promptly wore them out with huge wrong turns and epic walks.

I bought a dress at Zara that was destined to be mine. Love it. I had to justify the purchase by saying that a) it was on sale and b) I could maybe wear it to work with a cardigan. We'll see if I actually do.

I had a delicious $5 brunch with a H.S. girlfriend now residing in this great city, and who I live vicariously through occasionally :)

I met up with my BFF and her fiance direct from taking (and passing, let's be honest :) ) the NY Bar. They let me crash in their hotel, and brought us all up to the great city of Grand Rapids. They got to experience little HP in all his glory, he even sent them to bed with a gentle hug for both of them.

Thanks for coming! It's my turn to visit next :)

So I have come to the end of my summer adventures 2012. I went back to school this past Monday. Planned some plans, scheduled some schedules, etc. etc. Looks like its shaping up to be another full year. Get ready for my next chapter of adventures, hopefully to include:
