Where has the summer gone?! With August more than half over, I honestly considered not writing an August Goals post this month (plus, let’s be honest. We are all anticipating the recap from our trip to Peru!!). However, I did realize that even though I haven’t written down my goals for this month yet, I should still work towards my yearly goals for the remainder of this month.
July was a busy month that went as fast as it came. After taking a few days to kick our jet lag from our trip to Italy, we had a low-key celebration for the 4th of July. We spent a weekend with family and friends in Richmond and also went on a weekend getaway to Kerr Lake. My sister came to visit for the weekend at the end of the month and Jody and I prepared for our trip to Peru! It was an extremely busy month for us only being home for four weeks!
