POTD: Summer Highlights

The hazy days of summer are over.  Two months are just not enough time.  We savored every minute.  We packed in a lot.  We gave all we had to summer.  Here’s to long days and warm nights, shorts, flip-flops and painted toe nails, traveling and waking up without an alarm.  Here’s to high tide and low tide, sun-kissed cheeks and umbrellas in our drinks.  Here’s to the hazy days of summer.

From me to my sister:

After a couple of nights… we bailed on camping.  We are sleeping in beds tonight!

We found a little slice of heaven in the heat wave.

This sums up our summer!

Our summer in a nutshell.

Until next year…. I will wait with bated breath.  Through every snowflake I will search for summer on the horizon.

Celebrate summer days!  Let Scarlett Dalila show you the ways.
