the end.

Football has started.

School has started.

I guess we can officially say it is the end of summer.

this makes me sad bc I love snow cones  traveling, laying out by the pool, floating the river, sunshine, cut off denim shorts, and freckles.  

I also feel like it is more acceptable to do fun things in the summer.  and with life being so crazy lately, I had almost gotten comfortable in this season.  and I liked that. 

as much as I will miss summertime, I am so ready for the next season.
new activities, new clothes, and a new feel.


but before I say good-bye completely... I wanted to reminisce for a moment. 
 this summer was one for the books.

I not only survived it, I loved it, & had a lot of fun doing so.

you have been so good to me.

If you would have asked me in February how summer would be, I would have not known what to expect and thought merely surviving would be my best option.

So thanks to ALL of you, who made this summer so very much fun & hilarious & crazy.
