The beginning of the end...of summer!

This is our last week of summer break...yes, we start early compared to schools up North, but it's pretty average down here.  Besides, our Augusts are too hot to be outside during the day, but our Mays are beautiful, so we'd rather do school in August and be set free a couple of weeks into May!  There's still time before dinner to enjoy the pool after our school day is done, too...so that's why we're gearing up to start school next week.

Last night we celebrated the beginning of the end by taking the kids out for ice cream at Bruster's after church!

And on the way home (although this picture doesn't do it justice) we got to enjoy a huge, golden moon as it peeked over the trees...

I know you will make the most of your last week. Did you get new books for the school year? I would love to hear what type of schooling you do!

David and Abigail (and you) aren't excited about those ice cream cones, are they? Nah, I didn't think so. ;)
