August? How CAN it be August already? This weekend when we started Chloe's calendar afresh for the new month it struck me that our remaining summer weeks are waning.As I get older it seems that time goes by more quickly than ever before. Do you find that true?
Our summer has been packed full of activities. For the last 2+ weeks we've had my in-laws here visiting. Tia Becky joined the crowded house this past Friday. We are thoroughly enjoying living, cooking, and laughing together in our small home. It feels like we're a multigenerational family from years past as we function cooperatively to keep the household running. I'm certainly going to miss their help around here!
For us the month of August holds a smattering of playdates, visits, and activities including Chloe's momentous 4th birthday. Agh! How can my baby be turning FOUR? Again, I note the passage of time in fast forward mode.
How is August shaping up for you and your family? During our unscheduled August days I hope to squeeze out as much summer as possible! Wading pools, bike rides, and grilling galore!

I'm right there with you - how can it be August already? This has been such an atypical year for us with the wedding. I was thinking (naively) that I would have so much free time after the wedding - no more planning to consume my time. But I have definitely found other tasks to occupy myself! And with the busyness/responsibility I do find that the time slips by so much more quickly. This summer has really caught me by surprise b/c of the cooler weather. I keep waiting for summer to really start & it's almost over! We have family vacation (my fam), a cousin's wedding, & ongoing house projects scheduled for this month. I too am hoping to squeeze as much summer out of the month as possible - biking, running, shooting hoops with my hubby...good times! I'm glad you were able to enjoy such a wonderful visit with family!
You HAVE had a busy summer! So glad that you have been able to spend much of it family!!
Nice family....
share your family
