Last Day of Summer

welp, today was the last day of summer for us

kids are tucked in tightly 

sleeping til morning light

ready to go to school tomorrow

i have to say we had a wonderful summer

we nurtured friendships

we took walks

we held each other tight

we spent days in the sun

we loved each other

we stayed up late

we slept in late

we watched movies together

we took road trips

we discovered new places

new beaches

new land

we visited family

we laughed

we took naps

we tried new things

we stayed close to home

we played games

and of course we ended it with our annual

summer movie night

24 bags of target popcorn

sprinkled with chocolate yummies

we watched RIO

it was great

perfect way to end the summer

***

such a great summer

sad it's over

but happy to see what the new school year start

it's going to be a good one

i just know it
