The reddish leaves on our trees indicate that fall is just around the corner. The closing of our public pool hasn't slowed us down one bit. We have still found new and creative ways to squeeze the last bit of fun from this summer. August has been jam-packed with special plans including 2 summer/beach birthday parties, some local community events for the kids, a belated celebration for Adam's 21st birthday, a delightful visit with my Grandma, Aunt Jinny, and Uncle Jay, an enjoyable dinner and visit with a family from our church, a fun swimming date with Kathy and family at Steele Hill Resort, a luncheon with my college roommate, movie dates with Stephen and our teenage nephews (in our personal home theater :), an afternoon at the beach with Grandma P., Aunt Sharon and kids, some relaxing trips to the lake, wild-bluberry picking and the beginning of soccer... Tomorrow we plan to use Stephen's last vacation day for the summer and take a family field trip to Castle in the Clouds.
Since the reality of fall schedules is just around the corner, Stephen and I have lined up a babysitter this evening so we can plan our new schedule together and goals over Chai tea. Not the most romantic date, but I am thoroughly excited about it anyway! Stay tuned for a whole lot of summer pictures and stories about our first week of school...
