Summer Lovin’

We have been lovin’ up this summer.

Writing on sidewalks.

Relaxing on porch swings.

Running around playgrounds.

The ever-present potential of a jaunt through the sprinkler has meant that my good camera has stayed home and, instead, I’ve been capturing snapshots with the iPhone.

When the heat gets the best of us, retreating into the air conditioning to do a little work in the kitchen.

Build forts.

Play with playdoh.

(Ours was too sticky, not sure where we went wrong)

See what baskets we can fit into.

The summer has seemed long and we have crammed it full of good adventures, but I can feel the end nearing. The days are getting noticeably shorter and I know it won’t be long before the heat of the summer dwindles and the sprinklers are turned off for the season.

We have a few more weeks to enjoy it, and that’s what I intend to do, enjoy every minute. Knowing that our time outside, this buh-bye season, is bound to end.

My posts may be a bit more sparse, as a result, but I hope that means you all will have more time out, enjoying this glorious summer as well.

    Shhhhhh – don’t speak of such things as summer ending – it’s only just begun! (I love love the picture of your little man in the basket!!)

    I’ve gotta say, it may be total blasphemy, but I’m always just a little bit ready for the end of summer. I feel like we run at such a fast and furious pace trying to get our fill of the season, that I start to crave the slow, quiet days of Fall and Winter. I’m ready.

    ummm, yes, total blasphemy (though I have to agree with you!)

    Hey Danielle, thanks for popping into my spot today…and I have loved ‘meeting’ you this way…great pic of your much braver boy playing in the water. For some reason K has decided he is not a fan. Sigh, I am a waterbaby! Hope you do soak up your summer. Ours in the Midwest is MUCH too hot and humid, but we are off to Scotland in September and I know I will secretly miss the almost neverending sunshine.
