What a month! And I can’t wait to share it with you again!!! 🙂 There is just something about the summer months. I want to move. To groove. To see the world. To get out there. To explore. To relax. It might be because at my current full-time job, I have the SUMMERS OFF!!! One of the best parts about working at a school. It means a little more free time for me and extra time for you guys! I guess you could say my Summers are for practicing doing photography full-time and being at home full-time! (Let you in on a secret… I stink at managing my own time!! But I am getting better. Let’s save that for another post!)
Without further ado, July!!! in Review….
