Summer Wrap Up

I started writing this in Summer (told you I'm behind). I LOVE summer! I love not having a routine, or places to go. Some days we stayed in our pajamas ALL day, and loved it! We also had a fun time on a couple adventures.

I feel like a lot changes with the mark of a new school year. Leah is starting kindergarten. I'm sad in a different way than I was with Bryce. I'm excited for her, but it changes my purpose. I've been pretty much a stay at home mom, with the exception of substitute teaching here and there for 8 years. Now with both of them in school, I will work more and it means no more toddlers in this house. I guess I'm feeling blue and a little empty nest syndrome. School is such a bitter sweet thing for this mom.

This summer we had a blast, but we always do! The kids decided on small birthday parties ( I limited them to 5 guests) and instead go to Disney for a couple days. We also made a Pier trip and had plenty of swimming dates at Grandma's. We took a couple Vegas trips, one with friends and one for my sister-in-laws 21st birthday. My mom had her 50th birthday and my dad surprised her with renewing their vows. It was such a special day. Not looking forward to getting back to the grind!
