So Long Sweet Summer

Summer 2015 was full of many changes for our family including a new shore house, as well as Rachael moving into a house in the suburbs with her hubby! While we have been busy all summer planning for our October event, we made sure that we still got in some R&R on the weekends. Whether we were at the beach or by the pool, we certainly enjoyed ourselves. Since the summer is almost over, we wanted to share a short recap of some of our favorite summertime moments, as well as an easy at-home drink recipe which is perfect for the last week of summer!

We knew we had to share our favorite poolside beverage with you (Raspberry Peach Champagne Punch). It is the perfect mix of refreshing and fruity! Not to mention, it gives you a little champagne buzz. Take a break from that Rosé, and pour your house guests some of this fresh cocktail instead!

For the past 15 years our family has been beaching in Margate, NJ. It’s hard to believe just a short time ago we were building sand castles and boogie-boarding on this very beach. We couldn’t feel older if we tried!

Moving to the suburbs certainly has its perks! A new pool wouldn’t be complete without these perfect floats and a drink in hand. If tanning while laying in a donut is wrong, then we don’t wanna be right! Cheers to the summer of the swan!
