Sweet Summertime

All school year I look forward to summertime, only for it to come around and I end up being busier than I am during school!  Usually I work 2-3 summer jobs and spend my days on a drink cart at the country club or waiting tables.  This summer though, has been a welcome change.  Since I was only going to be home for 6 weeks before going back to school, I couldn't really get a full time nanny job or return to work at the country club.  Instead I just decided to throw my energy into my various small businesses-- Sweet Creations, Preppy Painted Prints, and In A Flash Photography.

I've already talked about Preppy Painted Prints on here, but Sweet Creations and In A Flash are my other two loves that are very near and dear to my heart.  Sweet Creations is my baking business-- specializing in cupcakes, cake pops, and other made to order sweet treats, and In A Flash photography kind of speaks for itself.

I knew that I had a handful of cake pop orders and photo sessions lined up for when I got home, but nothing too exciting.  I have been pleasantly surprised however, because business has been steady all around-- allowing me to actually make money doing what I love.  What a blessing it has been to actually enjoy my summer and to spend my days crafting, baking, and taking pictures!  God always provides for us-- this summer has been yet another shining example of that for me.  I only hope that my other friends are able to feel equally as graced by His love and plans for them!
