Typically the Labor Day weekend here in the states means that summer is coming to an abrupt end. It means floating in the pool one last time, or splashing in the lake. It means soaking up as much sun as you possibly can before the long winter hits.
Make sure that you remember to document all the summer’s memories–before it is gone. Did you take a vacation to the ocean? Or maybe just a weekend away to the cabin? Whatever it was, make sure you have it in your scrapbooks for years to come!
Hello everybody! Summer is starting to wind down a bit in my household. We have been spending less time at the beach and more time gathering things needed for the new school year, new clothes, shoes etc. Soon, soccer practice will begin and nights fighting with Edward to do his homework at the kitchen table will surely drive me a little crazy, but I am looking forward to it!
Last week, I managed to pull Edward off his computer so we could spend the day at the beach. It was during the week which was great because it was just the two of us. The weather was perfect and Edward was perfectly content and relaxed, playing in the sand. I love watching him enjoy the simpler things in life. I try to take lots of photos to savor the moments I love best.
Why is it that summer comes and goes SO FAST?
One of my all time favorite things about summer is enjoying a nice big slice of watermelon! It just speaks SUMMER! And, every single child loves to indulge in it as well. So, before the summer ends, we had to make sure to capture these precious moments.
I love summer!! Who doesn’t love summer? This paper just screams summer fun!
There always seems to be something happening during the summer months. Every year, our beautiful city of Kamloops hosts a rib fest, and every year our family goes and samples four of the amazing ribs they offer! I am prepared to scrapbook this messy day with this double page layout using the Slice of Summer Designer Paper Pack, Slice of Summer Mat Pack and the Slice of Summer Stickers.
Right now it is a mere 98 degrees here in Minnesota. It’s not always cold here. We do get the heat occasionally, and with that comes the humidity, and then the “feels like” temperature goes up even more.
With there being 10,000 lakes here usually the place to cool off is in the lake. However, for Advisor Beth Thomander and her family of Nova Scotia Canada, cooling off means a jump in the pool. That just sounds refreshing right about now.
How do you beat the heat?
