I feel like Summer just got started, yet it’s nearing an end all too soon and I have little to show for it. No exotic vacations. No beaches. No bucket-list trips down the California coast. Seems this year we squeezed the best out of summer in small ways: sailing boats, tending our first vegetable garden, swim lessons, day trips to national parks, homemade jam, visits with grandmas and grandpas and aunts and uncles and cousins, small town parades, a cookout or two. Potty training, teething. Simple pleasures, small triumphs. Not too shabby, I suppose. Our summer, in pictures:
what has been the highlight of your summer? do tell!

...by day, making a home where the buffalo roam. By night, pretty much the same thing, punctuated by the occasional fantasies of sunny beaches, italian movies and sparkling lemonade.
I've done everything but sleep this Summer, there hasn't been much of that around here. ;)
I've been so happy that my daughter is a toddler and not a baby this summer- we've played at water parks, lakes and pools, visited gardens, the zoo, and everything else under the sun. Literally- we were outside all summer long!
I, too, made homeade jam, and we've already been through 3 jars (my husband LOVES it!). I feel like the summer blasted by and I worked. Sad.
Well, you did do some cool stuff, bucket list or not!
My highlight? I enjoyed BlogHer, and spending time with my dad before his shoulder replacement. :)
This summer really did fly by, huh?
And it's been a bit since I've stopped by, but I thought I'd let you know that there's a rodent in your header. Just in case you want to call an exterminator or something. ;)
