May it always be summer

Why, oh, why does the summer fly? Routine is neglected, play time is increased. The garden grows, the sun shines, the days are long. There are berries to be picked and lakes to swim. Places to go, people to visit, and guests to enjoy. Oh, why, oh why does summer fly? This is the pace of life we should be living. We take more time for people and welcome spontaneity. But by the time fall rolls around, we welcome the cooler temperatures, the comfort of structure, and the changing leaves...I love fall, but not yet. Let's revel in summer a bit longer! Just a few blurbs from our summer thus far: a wedding in Indiana with Aaron's family, relaxing at Kate's family's lakehouse in SD, July 4th in Belle Fourche (the best ever), trips to Canada to the beach, lots of playing at the park and in the baby pool, riding bikes, saying good-bye to good friends...
