The Week that Was… #220

So the father person went back to work today… and after weeks of sleeping late and lazy meals in the great outdoors, everyone was up early and then a little subdued today. But that doesn’t mean we can’t reminisce on a summer well spent!!!

A New Year, and New moons… and time for a new weather tree to go up on the wall… though what can I say…. totally not enough blue on our tree. On the good side we are learning to save water in very real and practical ways every day…

And late night swims…

And generally late nights, since it is quite impossible to sleep when you can hear other folk still playing on the beach…

And summer sunsets…

  1. A summer well spent… how can you go wrong with ice cream, and beach days, and eating under the stars?! xo

  2. Hay Christi… there is truth in that… it just seemed to fly by so very fast!!! But life goes on… and I sense folk around here getting back into gear. Luckily the season is nowhere near changing and there is plenty more summer to come!!! All the best to you guys on the far side of the world!!!
