Creative Thursday Link Party No. 14

Well, summer has officially hit us in Northern California and we are having blazin' hot days in the high 90's to low 100's.  YUK!

I am SO not a summer person.  I don't mind the sunshine and warm weather but at least have the grace to cool off at night so I can open my windows!

For those of us who started summer early, we go back to school in just 5 weeks if you can believe that.  We have been boating a few times, up to my parents for the 4th of July and are getting ready for our BIG trip of the summer (more to come on this Friday; until then you will be in suspense lol )

Are you ready to party?  I am!

I want to thank everyone who linked up two weeks ago; we had a whopping 164 posts on my link party (happy dance and confetti!) BIGGEST PARTY EVER!

I also want to thank everyone who links up each and every week; ESPECIALLY in the summer because I know exactly how busy life can be and I really do appreciate your taking the time to spend a few minutes with me each week.  I enjoy reading all the stories behind each post :)

A warm welcome to all the new bloggers following and participating in Creative Thursday.
