a summer photo montage
where has the summer gone? it is almost august and i have not posted a blog in over a month. we have been so busy with all of the essential summer events - parties, weddings, family, grad parties, etc. i even made an appearance last weekend at the clipper waitressing. geez!
so way back in may, my cousin catie had an awesome cookout for her brother bobby and my birthdays, since we are a week apart. the weather held out, many people showed up and fun was had by all. we even had uncle joe with us at obriens later on in the evening!
the group shot below is bazzy, bogie, me, trish, bobby, allison, catie, john, celeste and buddy
over fourth of july weekend billy and i rented a cottage on bartlett point. it was the cutest place. and billy was on his way to do what he enjoys the most - fish.
i dont think we could get any closer to the water!
despite the fireworks getting rained out, we still managed to have fun. we had mom, george, aunt sandy, uncle dick, ray and marilyn and sara and maddy over for some fun one night. and saturday night we had friends over for a cookout.
thrown into the mix, billy's niece taylor graduated from high school in massena. we drove there for the festivities. this is the family's fourth high school grad and there are still two more to go!
and to make the summer even better, dan and sally were home for a week to visit. we got to take sally on a boat tour on the nicest day of their stay. they also came to the cottage and had dinner with us. and they even came to our home in syracuse the night before they left to stay with us. we had dinner and played wii most of the night. check out danny's "mii" it has a striking resemblance to him!
mom and george's dog nikko is awesome! we went to the farm the first night dan and sally came and had homemade speidies! lupos watch out!

house of wax
recently i bought a dozen really nice wax tart molds from ebay. i have a wax tart burner and love it. i think i have had it for almost a decade. so far i have made three different scents - lilac, midsummer night (similar to yankee candle) and my own mixture of eucalyptus and sage. i have decided to keep them as simple as possible, free of dyes and what not. so far all they are made of are soy wax, olive oil and essential fragrance oil. i have more scents on the way. if anyone has requests let me know. i am thinking of packaging them in twos and eventually selling some. if anyone has any ideas leave me a comment! thanks!
