Rural Thursday Blog Hop #29




Tuesday night was the boy's first practice in full pads. It's the practice they all look forward to!

Summer is winding down. School starts on the 22nd. Not looking forward to busy schedules, quick breakfasts, lunch packing, chasing kids out the door to catch the school bus. I'm not ready for fall. I just love summer. I love having the kids home with me. I love letting them stay out late on warm summer nights playing with their friends. Well I guess all good things must come to an end. We do still have a little more summertime to enjoy and we are going to take full advantage of every second!

Linking up with Rural Thursday

  1. I confess I'm not too excited about all that lunch packing either. But Pierce is excited to start kindergarten this year.

    Great picture - they look ready to tackle!

  20. Terrific photo, Tanya. I feel like I am there with them.

    Even worse than the things you mention is the realization that you have only so many summers with the kids at home to enjoy. When a summer ends, the number remaining becomes scarily small. Then, they leave home and life is forever different.

    So, hold onto these days as long as you can. And take as many pictures as you can, to help hold the memories.
