Crazy Summer

It has been one heck of a crazy summer. I guess not really crazy but busy. We have had three sets of visitors, busy work schedules and we have not had a chance to go camping which is sad. :( It was nice to have family come and visit though. My mother, sister and Jon's brother and nephews all stayed with us this summer.

Yes in this second picture I am blinking. I seem to have a knack for messing up photos. Now that the stores have the back to school sales I know that summer is over and the nights will start to get darker sooner...although to me, since college, I have felt that summer blends in to the rest of the year as I work year round in an office with no windows. So, this last weekend with my sister and Nicole in town I had to try and get the best of it. We shopped A LOT!, we bowled at Lucky Strike, laid out at the beach and ate a lot.
Right before my sister visited, Jon and I traveled to his cousins wedding in Minnesota. It was nice to see so much green and feel the humidity of the midwest. It felt like a real summer to me. It was only missing the lightening bugs. It was great to catch up with Mom and Dad while we were there.
Thought I would leave you with once last image of summer...a HUGE kite on the beach in Venice...this was so large you could have driven a car through it.
