Happy Friday!

Happy June 1!

Somehow I was in a panic earlier today when I started thinking we were already halfway through the year.

I even posted it on Facebook…

Happy June 1!!! Who else besides me is having a hard time believing we are already half way through 2012??? In honor of the 2012 half-way mark, I think it’s time for a sweet celebration! Check back soon for my sweet creation!

As my friend, KB, might say, my “thinker” wasn’t working very well today 🙂

Thank goodness Shelly brought me back to my senses when she sweetly replied {I’m sure so I wouldn’t feel too bad about my slip up}

Isn’t the half-way mark on July 1st? So now you get an extra month – savor it!!!

So even though we aren’t halfway through 2012 yet {whew!}, I think we should all heed Shelly’s advice, and savor a little sweet treat.
