Music Monday Video!

We have been a fan of Morrisey and The Smiths forever. The Smiths are definitely one of our favorite bands and have been a big inspiration to us throughout the years. Below is a beautiful video to the song There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, one of our favorite songs by The Smiths. I think I could listen to this band all day long.

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to Dads of all creatures! Even though we don't have traditional children, we consider our three dogs to be our babies and my hubby received this handmade card from them today.

We are celebrating the day with a relaxing afternoon outdoors, a clam boil for dinner and a movie under the stars tonight. A nice day! We hope all the Dads out there are having an equally enjoyable day.

Today is World Environment Day!

Happy World Environment Day 2010 Everyone! With the environmental destruction of the recent bp oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, becoming more aware of our environment and learning what to do to help protect it is more important than ever. Do your part, take responsibility and make every day World Environment Day!

World Environment Day was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 1972. Celebrated annually on June 5, World Environment Day is one of the leading channels through which the United Nations promotes worldwide awareness of the environment and enhances political attention and action.






Rwanda in Africa is this year's host country for World Environment Day.  Rwanda has banned plastic bags in an effort to help protect the environment. Why not take Rwanda's lead of being eco-cool and ban plastic bags from your life. Carry your own earth friendly reusable canvas tote bags with you when you go shopping. It's a simple change you can make today! Every action, no matter how small, counts towards helping save our planet.
