National Night Out

You gotta love living in Bellevue and root beer floats!!! 

Thanks to all that helped make it another great National Night Out.

Friday Night Movies

One of the really great things about living in the Bellevue neighborhood is being able to walk to Once Upon a Vines parking lot every Friday to enjoy a Friday Night Movie. This week we watched Happy Feet. (love the music mash-ups in that super cute movie)

Everyone gets a sweet snack and a bubbly drink from Bob's array of non-alcoholic offerings and we all sit out under the stars and watch a movie that is projected upon the wall. It's really fantastic. I just wish I could take better pictures in the dark! ; )

Next weeks movie is ELF, a little Christmas in July!

Divine Design and Craft Boutique This Friday!

See ya there Richmond!

Retro Richmond goodness

You know how this blog thing works... you check out one site, then another, and if you are lucky you find a really dreamy site. Well, that happened to me today. First, I was checking my email when my Modern June's Google Alert said that my night out picture post had been noted on the North Richmond News site. John, father to our newest craft baby, has this great news site for out local neighborhoods.



While I was there, I saw a post about the old Bellevue Theatre. WOW! I knew it had to be cool, but I had no idea how cool! Today the building houses the Samis Grotto. I took this photo on Tuesday night. Man I love these guys. It's a hoot to see how men don't really change all that much over the decades.


From NRN I found myself at Retro Richmond for more 411 on the old theatre. I am giddy about this site--it makes me wish I had time to just sit around and read it all afternoon. Oh how I miss the days when the kids were young, before I started Modern June and I used to have spare time.

But wait it gets better! At Retro Richmond I found a great post about a photo shoot that happened at Dot's Back in. OMG, what great photos. I heard that this was going on, but I didn't know just how cool it was. The photographer is an old homeschooling buddy. Ginger pinger puddin pie! WOW, she is good!

So off to 422 studios for more retro goodness! Pin up girl heaven! Let me just say when it is time to have some real PR photos done for Modern June I have my photographer. Maybe even a few awesome models too!

OK, I really have to get off this computer! NOW!!! before I find something else incredible.

BTW, could I use more !!!!! ? I don't believe so!!!!
