Last Weekend of Summer Break

Well the kiddos start school tomorrow. So I decided to spend my last weekend around the house relaxing. It ended up being a great weekend and I feel like I (we) got a lot accomplished....

I finished The Help, if you havent read it stop reading my blog and go buy yourself a copy. The movie comes out this week and I can't wait to see it!


We also did a ton of yard work. Actually Trev did most of the yard work but when the storm was rolling in I followed him with our trash can and pick up the leaves:) I decided that my favorite things in our yard are the Magnolia tree and the Crepe Myrtle trees. Next year I hope to add some hydrangeas. Just more reasons why I love the south.


Then we wrapped up the weekend by making an amazingly delicious peach pie. I got the recipe out of last month's Southern Living. I did not attempt the lattice but it turned out pretty cute. I will have to give it to Trev he made the homemade crust and we both said it was the most amazing crust we've ever had!! The mixture was a little soupy but it still tasted amazing!





Now off to bed, morning is going to be here before I know it. I am so excited to meet all my new students I'm sure I will barely sleep.

  1. Wish we lived closer so we could see The Help together! Put up more pics of your house!! All the little snippets I've seen have been so cute. Also...I just came home from the grocery store with a bag of peaches! Glad to know I'm not the only one craving them!! I'm gonna make a cobbler tonight:)
