Farewell To Summer

We had some fun adventures this summer. We planted a garden (still waiting for some of our veggies to ripen), took walks, went to the lake, visited the park, took two vacations to visit family, went on a camping trip and learned it takes some work to keep up a yard.

I have loved the sunny times and we enjoyed them so much. Now before we pull out the raincoats I'd like to smile and revisit summer for just a minute to say good bye.


Good bye swings without having to wipe the rain off first...
Good bye wading pool, "Don't splash me..."
Good bye playing in the grass without getting a wet seat...
Good bye merry-go-round at our new favorite park...
Good bye sand and lake water, "Don't drink that, EWWW..."
Good bye sitting out watching kids play and soaking up the sun.
Saying good bye to Summer isn't all bad. We will have next year to look forward to and with any luck we'll see some snow this winter and get to teach the boys how to enjoy that too. Good-bye Summer, we'll see you soon!
