DIY Pool Noodle Photobooth Backdrop
September may be starting this week, but I’m refusing to give up on Summer yet. There are still too many pool, beach, ice cream, sno-cone, and sunny related things on my to-do list and I need to cram them all into one week. So, here’s to making this week as jam packed as ever with…
