We spent our very last day of summer vacation doing kid’s choice on everything from sun up to sun down. And let me just tell you, they loved ruling the roost for a day. John made egg in a hole for breakfast and then we scooted out the door to catch Smurfs 2 (much to my delight seeing as the Smurfs were my favorite cartoon as a child.)
After the movie and lunch at home we bee-lined for the pool. I can always tell when summer’s ending because they start playing out of the water as much as in the water – building forts under the chairs and scrutinizing Pokemon cards with their besties.
After a kid’s choice supper of Bangin Grilled Shrimp and Edamame Fried Rice (I LOVE those boys!), we made s’mores on the porch and tossed around the football. It was a bittersweet end to summer. I sure will miss these boys when they are off at school!

What a fun end to summer! Hope the school year is GREAT!
Y'all have a great 1st week back!
What a great way to end summer! Our oldest will start her first full week of teaching this week, and we will head back to Texas with the youngest a week from tomorrow! Bittersweet. Hope they have a fab first week!!!
Looks like a great day! Can't believe it's that time of year again !
How fun, Amanda! I miss the anticipation of the first day of school with my girls. Now, they're both in college; and we were just laughing about how much fun it was to shop for new school supplies. Those were the days!
Oh my….I am a teacher and head back for my first day today. I hate to see summer end just as much as my own children and students! At least they have one more week to relish before hitting the books. Here's to another happy school year!!

Lucky boys to have you. And you're a lucky awesome mom. I love (most of) my summer days with my 2. Having a good day so spirits high:)
