Hi friends, Happy Wednesday. My brain thinks it’s still May and I have the rest of the summer left to enjoy so it’s hard to believe we are nearing the end of July! This is what happens when we change up our summer routine. We usually kick our summer off at the beach with a long weekend at Ocean City before the madness of Memorial Day. (Yikes!)
