Goodbye Summer

I can't believe summer is coming to a close. 



We've had so much fun!

We traded flip flops for bare feet!



And got sand between our toes.



We enjoyed some thrills!



And a few spills!



No worries! No young people were injured in the making of this blog!



See there? It's all good!!

There were butterflies aplenty!



Tadpoles in ponds!



Fountains,



and sculptures.



Yummy picnic lunches!


Eh hem. It's possible I drank Zach's Coke. For this I am truly sorry! However, it would not have happened if, even once, I had found a Coke for Christine!

But nooooo. Not one Coke for Christine have I found all summer.

I've done my best to get along, but, I will say, it has been a deep disappointment. -sigh-




Oh well. At least there was fudge! -YAY-


Fudge makes all things better! Right??

We took some selfies!





And chased frogs!


No frogs were injured in the making of this blog either! Just sayin'.

Now don't get me wrong. Our summer wasn't all perfect fun and games. 

We had some washouts. Trip to Northfield MN was a soaker. -bummer-



We've also worked hard. Yep, chores don't end in the summer now do they? Can you hear the children groan??

But too much work and no play, well...



Lets just say, it isn't pretty!!!!

Yep, there was some much needed fun in the sun this summer.




And in two short weeks it will all be over. -sniff- 

School will begin. -double sniff-

The end of soaking up the sun for this summer. -Waaaah-



Well, at least it was fun while it lasted.

Goodbye Summer. I shall miss you something awful. -sigh-

But, on the bright side, soon there will be pumpkin spice lattes, crunchy leaves, crackling fires and cozy sweaters!!  Hello Fall!!! Woohoo!!!
