August is coming to an end and I just can’t believe how quickly this month went by. I started the month with butterflies in my stomach for my upcoming plane trip back home, and then felt my heart swell from the happiness of finally being in my beloved state. Going back to grad school got the butterflies roaming around again, but they have since subsided and I am just so happy to be back to my studies. August really has been a special month and I’m so excited to see what September holds! I want it to be a really, really great month!

Being back home in Phoenix means spending lots of time around my favorite (man-made) lake. Scott and I like to take evening walks after the temperature outside has cooled down a bit, and really enjoys seeing others out taken in the amazing sunset lake views.

This picture really doesn’t do the sunset justice, but perhaps will at least give you a feeling of what it was like to have something so gorgeous surrounding you. I am positive this is the best spot to watch the sunset in Tempe!

This morning Scott and I went on a little walk around the lake, and now we are camped out at a favorite coffee shop catching up on some work and getting everything set for our weekend up in Flagstaff!

What is making you happy today? This iced coffee and a nice working atmosphere is really doing it for me today!
