Last Weekend of Summer

Gosh we had a great last weekend of SUMMMMER!

We did our last back to school shopping, which had my brain spinning. Why can't I handle this in July? BUT I know why. NO ONE wants to think about back to school in July--but seriously...next year! We then went to the Demolition Derby and the Fair Saturday night! I've actually never been before, and it has been a Russell and the kids kind of thing. It was nice to come with this time:) It was super noisy and was SUPER fascinating. A whole world that I never KNEW. 

The fair was BUSY BUSY BUSY. Lesson learned to get my FAMOUS ferris wheel photo *before* we go play vs. after. BECAUSE some of us weren't having it! We did cave on Dempsey trying for a fish from the fair again. Unfortunately the fish didn't make it more than 24 hours...so there's that. 

After we got home and the kids went to bed I went out to the hot tub. I saw my first meteor and was reminded that we were having a meteor shower. I ran and got the kids and Russell, and we had such a great time. We saw multiple meteors and then Dempsey saw the Starlink! It was the first time for the kids-how random and cool?!?!

Then we spent Sunday at the Folk Fest! It was a different kind of year this year because it was cooler out. We played in the water, but not nearly as much if the weather was nicer! NONETHELESS- we had a great time-the music was amazing....the venue was superb!  I would be lying if I didn't have a small tiny bit of regret on the heels of the weekend because I jumped in to a 12 hour day.....but you know. TRADITIONS:)

Goodbye summer, hello school.

Love,

Mom
