The end of summer is always so bittersweet for me...
I love, love, love summer. I love the sunshine, the flowers, the outdoor music & chilled cocktails. I love pontoon boat rides at the cabin, Liam playing in the sprinkler and nursing Chloe outside on the deck.
Yet as Fall starts to roll in I also look forward to throwing a sweatshirt on & going for walks in the cool, crisp air. There's nothing more comforting than making pumpkin pies, having fires in our fireplace and snuggling on the couch with my family under a bunch of fuzzy blankets.
So as Summer says goodbye and Fall says "hi" I plan to try and enjoy every little bit of it...
Goodbye warm breezes, hello coughs and sneezes.
Goodbye bees, hello colorful trees.
Goodbye tomatoes, hello potatoes.
Some things that made me smile last week:
Cooking with fresh vegetables from our garden and farmers market...
The normalcy of play time...
An abundance & assortment of tomatoes from our garden...
Flowers from Matt...
Liam playing under the birch tree in my mom's front yard
(the same birch tree I used to play under when I was a kid)...
My usual breakfast as of lately - coffee and oatmeal with brown sugar, yogurt and fruit...
Surfers on Lake Michigan...
Our little sleeping beauty...
Liam so proud of his block building...
Chloe learning to sit up on her own...
Some cool graffiti art we discovered under a bridge...
And our cats snuggling.
If only they knew they're brother and sister!!
Have a peaceful week,
❤️Erin
