R.I.P. Summer 2012

Summer 2012: "Short lived, but never forgotten"
This summer, where do I even begin?
First of all you Summer 2012,  will forever rank in the stats books as my favorite summer...so far.

Highlights:

1) Salt River Trip, twice!
June



August



First in June, then in August! Had a blast both times!


2)  Newport Beach, CA with the most generous/fun-loving people on the planet.



Disneyland, Beach sittin', Pier walkin'....Best vacation by far!

3) New friends:

Hilarious! L-R: Zach, JB, and Taylow! 


Since I mainly spent the summer with Jackie, I became good friends with her brother and a couple of his buddies John and Taylor.


And who could forget Ruben...

NOT IMPRESSIVE AT ALL.



4) My Blog Make-over:


Ginger In The Rye is looking a little different these days! I [personally] love the new look! Do you?


5)The Dutchman and me!



While my sister and her hubby were in Europe, I had a blast with everyone's favorite Labradoodle!
Love that "little" guy!


6) Creating best friends!







Matchbox Twenty's New Album:



It's been nearly a decade since they released "Exile on Mainstream". They were my Aunt's(who passed away) favorite band. I think that in a way it is her connecting with me because I love MB20 too!  I am absolutely in love with the hit single "She's so mean"!

She would have been 50 this past July.

But like all good things, it was time for Summer to come to an end. Today was the first day of my Sophomore year and I am very excited because some of the classes are a direct reflection of my major! Super stoked to get focus on school and work!

I can't wait to go visit Jackie up at GCU and spend time with the people I love most! See you soon Jacks!


I started this morning off right! Coffee and a Churchill! Couldn't think of a better way to get myself out of bed the AM!




Thanks again for a wonderful Summer everyone! I hope you had as much fun as I did! We will pick up  next summer, in 2013!


Love you all! Have a good week blogland!


Hope life is beautiful wherever you are!




On a Side note: I found this to be hilarious and accurate! I have  incredible cameras, but most (all) of my photos are captured with my iPhone. So a majority of the time I look like this guy!
