A summer photo series: Each week during our summer vacation I will be posting a photo summary. I will include photos that capture the mood of our days and how we're spending them. 

This week we...

…took it very easy. Slept in. Stayed in our PJs to an embarrassingly late hour. Drank dry soda and ate ice cream at the park with our Cub Scout pack:





…enjoyed the shady cover of clouds at the park:



…and watched a beautiful cotton candy sunset from our yard:



It seems fitting that this post ends with a sunset photo because this was our final week of summer vacation. I really can not believe how quickly the time passed! The beginning of a new school year is always bittersweet. I am looking forward to fall but also trying to squeeze out a little more summertime too. I need a few more warm morning runs. Homemade jam. Dinner picnics at the lake. I need more!

Please stay tuned for a new series in the fall! xoxo

This week we...

…took a road trip to visit family. We went to a small county fair near my home town on a smoky summer evening:





…took a small hike around Lake Siskiyou in Mt. Shasta, California:



…foraged for blackberries in my dad's backyard:


…ate ice cream cones the size of our heads:


…played in the mud:


…and road a mechanical horse for 25 cents:
