Highlights from our last week of summer….

Visited Longwood Gardens…now have a membership so we can go back for fall harvest events and beautiful Christmas displays. Love stuff like that.

Drew doesn’t pose for any pictures unless he’s a pirate.

We went to see a crazy, funny balloon/magic show and then went to Chick Fil A for dinner where the guy was making balloons for customers. We all were wondering how this lady managed to get the palm tree home. Wonder if she noticed the crazy camera lady (eh em….me) taking her picture.

And, of course, a sword for the pirate. Doesn’t he look sinister?

Ashlyn’s dog on a leash actually had black mini balloons inside clear balloons for the eyes. And, the guy made this thing in literally 45 seconds or something. Crazy.

Visited a cool local park with immense slides–check out Evan on the bottom level on the left.

We met our teachers–here’s Ash with her kindergarten teacher.

and Evan with his 2nd grade teacher.

Can’t forget our pet rocks we painted yesterday. Kids were totally into this project. Drew’s became “a mountain” instead of a pet.
A last-minute attempt to capture some summer swimming at the Y. Our membership this summer was well worth it.
Now, I’m off to whip up some fun dessert to “celebrate” the last day of summer and the start of school. Anticipate a sob-story post tomorrow about how my babies are growing up.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
