Bring on the summer

Howdy folks! The past few weeks have been a blur for us. After a week at VBS, I volunteered, Ian was in the Pre-school program, Sean joined the fun in the nursery and Baby Girl tagged along and helped me with the crafts. My niece joined us for VBS as well and stayed with us for the week; she was a great help and the boys had much fun with her making waffles, swimming and playing legos!
I turned a year older on the 9th and had a great birthday! I celebrated with my little family at home, then with some friends, a dinner out with my husband, and at the beach with my extended family, thanks Sister! Yep, 4 nights at the beach was just what we all needed. There is something therapeutic about the beach; that time in the evening after you’ve had a shower and the sun is setting behind you and the children are so worn out from playing all day that they fall asleep before dinner and sleep through the night.
Your beach time with family and the pics really takes me back! Aunt Lois’s family and mine spent many summers going to Pop-Pop Henry’s beach cottage after labor day. Alas it all began to change when kids got old enough to have to be in school during that week. Too bad we didn’t know about home-schooling, huh?
Just the ESSENCE of summer. Love it!
Thanks for sharing.
