Oh Snaps! A Peek at our last Summer Moments on Instagram


All though I'm back in the classroom, I've flipped through the pages of all the Fall fashion issues of my favorite magazines, and there's a cool enough breeze at night to leave the windows open, I'm still in denial that in just 5 days Summer will be officially over. In my Facebook feed yesterday there was a post from ABC Family, that mentioned the 100 day countdown till Christmas, which sparked a conversation about presents, and the need to buy the boys new winter boots which instantly had me anxious. I'm so not ready! Personally I'd love to just linger in the memories of our simply relaxing summer & thought I'd let you indulge a little longer by sharing some of our August stay-cation moments.

 Oh Summer you will be missed!

  • I was so jealous of those that got to Foley sq. early enough for Zip-lining during Summer Streets.
  • CJ loved this larger than life sun-catcher and the other pieces of public art at City Hall Park.
  • Even Space Rangers have to take a potty break.
  • Gantry State Park for some Shakespeare in the park.
  • My new fave pic of the Hubby and I courtesy of our 8 year old. Say "Cheesedoodles"
  • Sunset, slides and swings with great views of the skyline.
  • My fave brunch at Essex: potato cakes, apple cream sauce w/ spinach, mushrooms and black beans.
