Summer's End

I know, I know, it's only the middle of August and Summer still has a long way to go. But in my mind when the kids go back to school Summer is over.

We had a great time at Grammy's Summer Camp. Field trips, play dates, swimming, art projects. We managed to fit a lot in.

We spent the last days before the start of school on a couple of fun projects. We assembled a 300 piece jigsaw puzzle and we planted pumpkins to (hopefully) grown our own jack o'lanterns.

Ta-da! we did it!

Time to plant the pumpkins... in our swimsuits

Since Sunny and Thunder got to plant them,

Skye and Storm got to post the garden markers

Now school is in session and we're looking forward to Autumn.

Of course here in the Phoenix area, we'll still be in the 100s until October and Autumn usually doesn't occur until February IF we have a couple of nights below freezing.

At my house Autumn will arrive over Labor Day Weekend when I bring out the Fall decor...
