It feels like we were just unpacking backpacks and lighting sparklers, and now we’re organizing school supplies and making dorm runs. This summer was a sweet one – full of adventures, friends, family time, and those everyday moments that mean the most. John completed both Physics II and Calculus III, while Whit logged over 50 volunteer hours with his favorite organizations, began considering his college path, and knocked out his Health course online. We spent countless hours on the porch, and even more listening to records on repeat in the den. And I cooked, cleaned, washed, and cared for them with a strange kind of joy that comes with knowing time is fleeting.

Here’s our summer in snaps…

I made, and we consumed, more loaves of sourdough than I can count.

We played all the games all the time. Rarely was there not one on the cleared off dining room table.

We made early suppers at the club on Friday nights a tradition, Honey and I staying on for happy hour with friends.

I took meal requests every Saturday morning and make it my mission to make all of their favorites.

We went on bakery quests for gingerbread and Dubai chocolate.

We lunched with friends, I made snow cones by the pool on repeat and washed towels by the dozens.

Just like that, summer has come to a close. No regrets!
