summer wouldn't be complete without a frozen hot cocoa from hatch's family chocolates

in july, we kept up tradition by heading down to encinitas for a week at the beach house. it was amazing. loved the sunshine. loved the beach. loved chilling out and catching up on some good books. and loved some more quality time with the fam. i sure have been spoiled this summer getting to see them so much! 

we had to keep up with tradition at thrifty ice cream. i sure love me some chocolate malt crunch!

oh, and one of the other highlights of the summer? peru! pictures to be posted soon :)

  2. So glad I was part of your highlights. I am, however, sad our little excursion around the airport didn't make it!
