I've always had an idealized picture of what summer should be. You know, like something from a Country Time Lemonade commerical. Inevitably, it goes by too fast. And this year it was too fast. The last week of summer crept up on me like a thief in the night, determined to steal the last minutes of freedom, laziness, and warmth from us. In an effort to capture the last fleeting moments of summer, I attempted to plan an activity for every day of the week.
Some moments were better than others, but hopefully I was able to create some happy memories for my kids before we all returned back to the grind of school, homework, soccer games, etc.
