Summer is in full swing here in the cul-de-sac. The kids have only been out of school two weeks and we have packed in so much already. My nine year old keeps saying, "this is the best summer ever". That's music to a mom's ears, makes you feel like just maybe you are doing something right for a change. But of course I know how quickly that can change!
We always end the school year with an ice cream party, this year it was ice cream & swimming in the neighbors pool. Always a good time! Especially when we had visitors all the way from Utah come and spend the week back in the cul-de-sac! Oh, how we have missed this sweet family !!
The cul-de-sac goes strawberry picking.
Turned these babies into freezer jam, first time I've ever attempted that. Surprisingly simple and so very yummy!
Spent a lovely morning at the beautiful Hershey Gardens.
Roses blooming everywhere, in every color imaginable.
Summer, I'm loving you so far. Could you hang around for awhile and please slow down! The days are just flying by!
I want it to slow down also! As much as I am looking forward to a few hours a week of alone time in the fall- I'm not ready yet - I love that the kids are doing fun things all the time- it reminds me of when i was a kid
ReplyDeleteI think I'm in your area - we're in E-town. Saw you on Just a Girl. So I was wondering where do you do your strawberry picking?
