The first of August

Today I turned the calendar to August. August is one of those months that I am reluctant to see come around......to me, it means that school is starting again for some.....the care free days of summer are winding down.....we love summertime! August, you have some good times in store for us! I know you do! We look forward to more cobbler making, another batch or two of jam, pool time, traveling, bike riding, family time, delicious meals outside, homemade Popsicles, fresh summer fruit and vegetables, quilting, still going to make a summer skirt, floppy hats, sunshine!

Hot pink!

One good thing I do know, is that the warm days of sunshine are not over! For us, summer weather lasts through September and October! Here's to more glorious days spent outdoors!



Summer's lease
hath all too short a date.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)
