Farewell Summer!

How can this summer be over already? It is suppose to be in the 80's-90's for the next couple of days, but after that, there is nothing but low 70's predicted for the next week! We have noticed a chill in the mornings and evenings, and there are already leaves piling in our front yard! Here's a quick recap of some fun summer stuff we are saying goodbye to...

Sun hat Beauties

 We didn't make it to the shore very often this summer, so at least my sun hats got some wear by the girls!

Pretty Girl after church one morning... I taught Sunday school this summer and the girls were my helpers after class organizing my lessons :)

 There were lots of trips to the park... I think I should have bought stock in mosquito repellent! I am so not going to miss the mosquitoes.



"Cheese!"

 Visited a neighborhood lemonade stand...

 Also checked the Camden Aquarium, and I don't know who had more fun, J or the girls. Every year our DVR is filled to the brim with shark shows from Shark Week on the Discovery Channel. Is it a coincidence J happen to suggest a visit to the aquarium right after? LOL.

 We wanted to picnic on Labor Day, but instead got rained out. We made due with a carpet picnic in the playroom, with the girls favorites: hot dogs and chips n' dip!

 Daddy made Smores for Lulu and Maddie one evening...

 Daddy had some visitors at work while it was slow this summer... 

 

I am thrilled for autumn, mostly because it is my favorite season. Here's why:
1. Fall Foliage
2. Pumpkin Spice Lattes/ Salted Carmel Mocha/ Dunkin's Pumpkin Coffee.
3. Boot and sweater weather

Last year we tried our best to enjoy fall, but after living in a warehouse and closing/moving into on our first home took over. I didn't even decorate last year (shocking). So this year we are doing it right... pumpkin patches, apple picking, harvest festivals, and enjoying long walks through the changing trees... and yes, as of Sept. 2nd my decorations are up. Hello Fall, bring on the pumpkin!!!
