Singing in the Rain

I absolutely love thunderstorms!  I swear we haven't had a thunderstorm out here since the tropical storm came through in August.  Tonight's storm was pretty good, but definitely too short.

We have been pretty busy finishing up the school year and getting ready to head back to Michigan.  We leave in 7 days!  So much stuff to pack!

I've been thinking about some summer goals I have, and decided that if I write them down somewhere, maybe I'll actually accomplish them :)
  • Exercise!  I want to start running and riding my bike regularly.  I'm hoping to be able to run at least a 5K before the end of summer, and I would like to ride my bike as much as last year.
  • Learn to sew more!  Curtains for our apartment are definitely on the list.
  • Read!  I've finished 38 books so far, so I'm hoping to add quite a few more this summer :)
  • Go to a Tigers game.
  • Road Trip!  We are thinking of going to Texas to check it out.
  • Check into online programs to start my Masters degree.
  • Open an Etsy shop!  I'm thinking of calling it Beckwith Boutique...
Speaking of my Etsy shop, here are a few of my most recent projects:


 Mini minion hats

 Puppy dog newborn "outfit"

 Owl newborn hat (probably the best hat I have made yet)

Striped "elf" hat
