Goodbye Summer

Well it looks like summer is over. The weather sucks (65 degrees yesterday???) and the kids are going back to school. Back to the days of making lunches, carpool, and homework. Yuck. Although we didn't have perfect weather this summer, it was always nice to just be outside doing stuff...

Things I'll miss about summer:

Morning trips to Starbuck's with Alyssa... (bagel is from DD just so I don't start any rumors)


Painting outside with the kids...









Watching Will ride his bike like a pro....


My kids' bake sales....





Hanging out at the park....


Blueberry Picking...


Walking and picking flowers on the bike path with Alyssa...



The pool....






Fishing...




Great America...


Taking Jessica and her friends to Navy Pier...



Hanging out with friends, camp, playing tennis at the park, baseball and golf in the front yard.... summer is awesome!



Oh and apparently so am I....

Check out Jessica's and Emily's cell phone!!!


I've never seen the girls so happy in all my life. Jessica uses it mostly.

And thank God for unlimited texting because she has almost 200 texts already and it's only been a couple weeks!!!




P.S. Did i tell you that Jessica and Emily worked as counselors at my niece's backyard camp? They each made $50 a week!
