End of Summer Celebration

15 Aug

Today we are celebrating the end of our summer vacation.
The boys will be going back to school tomorrow.
So today I wanted to share some of my favorite memories from our summer.


We have been blessed with a wonderful time together this summer.
So very thankful.
Zachary will be starting 4th grade this year.

Conner will be a Freshman and AJ will be a Junior this year.
We are so looking forward to everything God has in store for them.
What are some of your favorite memories from this summer?

    You captured your summer so beautifully. Favorite summer memories? Seeing my older two daughters so impacted on their respective mission trips, a fun visit from my m-i-l, seeing one of my sisters for dinner three times over a few weeks but mostly just creating ordinary special moments with my sweet hubby and four girls. 🙂

    Looks like your boys had a pretty fun filled summer! Mine started back to school yesterday, and it takes some getting used to, not having them around. Our favorite summer memory was going home and being with family for about a month and ending the trip at the beach..it was a great time for us all. Hope your kids have a great year!

    Thanks so much Stefanie! My mom has always told me that she was glad when summer came and then glad again when summer was over. She said that the summer afforded her the freedom of no schedule, but was ready for it again when it was over. Blessings!
