August Vibes, and Sipsby Tea Review

August treated us well, other than the mid-90-degree weather, and school starting. I'd say I am still very thankful and feel fortunate to be able to take in each day and be with my family.

August consisted of school starting, new job searches for my husband, and new blog opportunities for me. I am forever thankful to all of you that continue to reach out, and those of you who come by, and read my content. This month my content was featured on Hometalk, and I have had a few other blog opportunities. - Thank you!

And for those of you who follow along, I'd love it if you checked out my other blog over at stephcreatesthingsdiyhomeandcrafts.blogspot.com I started this blog so that I can display more of my crafts. It is a space that will feature just my DIY crafts and other home projects.

This month I received my August tea box, and as always Sipsby left me impressed! If you haven't heard of Sipsby here's a little about who they are, and what they do.

Can we just say that this was my absolute favorite in my August box!

Every sip was like I was enjoying a sugar cookie, and it was so delicious.
