The summer went well. We debated and decided against putting up the big swimming pool this year only because the ladder isn't as sturdy as we'd like for Steve. Last summer he nearly fell off it, caught his foot and it could have been a serious issue since he was home with K. So we opted to just put the smaller pool up while we look for ladders etc and K loved it the same.
The garden has grown like crazy. Tomatoes out our ears, beans, onions, peas, peppers and greens. We tried a new hot pepper this year, a Tabasco pepper, and it's still coming on. Thinking that it will be producing near fall time lol
We had some awesome family time, car trips and picture taking. Lots of laughter. Tons of time star gazing and moon watching. Listening to the animals in the night. Watching area farmers work on their fields and helping at our family places.
My schooling has rolled right along. I've enjoyed the majority of my class work and I keep telling myself to keep trudging along...the light's at the end of the tunnel ;)
And now...summer is winding down. School shopping is on the agenda, book rentals loom ahead and the schedule gets a bit stricter.
But what a wonderful summer it has been!!
