Summer's Over
Dylan starts school tomorrow and Brandi starts in two weeks. Wow, how time flies. It's really true; the days are long but the years are short. I don't really feel like we got all the quality time we were supposed to this summer.
But we did take numerous trips to Eutawville and Edisto Island to see our parents/grandparents. Dylan learned to kneeboard and Brandi is swimming out over her head (with lifejacket on, of course). The kids saw their cousins (Chipper, Caroline, Julia and Alex) multiple times and had a blast. I took a week of vacation during the week of July 4th. Overall I suppose we did get the time with family that we all need.
Still, the summer is almost behind us.
But ahead we have fall, October birthdays, and cooler weather.
Then Thanksgiving, the holidays, and Christmas birthdays
So sharpen up your pencils and get ready for homework. Decide which Halloween costume to wear. Dig those recipes out to cook that turkey, dressing, casseroles and such. Put together your list and check it twice. (We all know who's been naughty and nice.) Summer's over.
