End of Summer Blues


You know that feeling when you know everything is going to change soon and you can't help but feel a little sad? Well for the last few weeks that's how I've felt. It's the end of summer and everything is changing.


We were so lucky to have Jessica, Jared and Alysa home all summer. And we got to play and see them almost everyday. It was great! But of course they had to leave and go back to school in Utah. So sad to see my cute little niece wave and yell good-bye to her cousins at the airport, knowing we wont see her again until Christmas time.


Then there's Jamie Rose... it's so much fun to have Auntie Jamie around to play and sing and go to the park with all summer. But now she's a big 1st grader and has to be back in school. And with Jamie back in school Grandma is at work a lot more, so no more play dates with her either.

All these things make me a little sad, but it's also nice to have just my boys home with me all day. And then have time to spend with my Hubby after he comes home from work. This week we walked to the park and played by the lake.
Isaac and Jacob had a lot of fun swinging together!
And the boys got to play in the sand (well really it's just wet dirt and rocks). Of course Jacob was trying to eat the rocks most of the time, yucky! It was a lot of fun just our little family!

I know exactly what you mean about end of summer blues. It gets depressing when family and friends leave after you've gotten all spoiled hanging out with them for the last three months.
