Friday Finisher 6/16/17

Published: Jun 16, 2017 Β· Modified: Apr 3, 2019 by Rebecca Pytell Β· This post may contain affiliate links.

From PlayDoh to Potatoes this week! I'm getting so anxious now that we're halfway through June and feel like the summer is already over and there's no time left before another semester begins. I know, summer doesn't even officially start until June 21st, but it still feels like the weeks are slipping away. To maximize true summer relaxation, I'm pretty sure I'll be taking some time off in July and August on the blog. Maybe just one post a week. I know you guys want to enjoy your holidays and not be online and so do I! We'll see what happens and just go with the flow for the time being! Now go have a wonderful weekend and a happy Father's Day!

    Hi there, I love one-piece swimsuits, too. They're such a fresh alternative to the usual skimpy versions (although there's a time and a place for those, too!) Thanks so much for linking to my post!
