The official, unofficial, last weekend of summer. A little sad, but not really, cause I am super pumped for fall. I have my sweaters unpacked, my knitting started, and am looking forward to eating nothing but apples and pumpkins for a while. I am ready.
Now to get through the next few days of close to 90 degree weather. (Globaly warming... you suck!)
This past week of summer has been great. We have managed to get a lot of work crap done, but also had time to do a little river hopping, have a sleep over with a few littles, and go to a family gathering. The mr, being the most bestest guy, even hand mowed out little yard so we can actually sit outside without being surrounded by 3 ft tall weeds and hay. He is so nice. We did get a chance to pick a few apples from our community garden (not sure of the variety, but they are so good!) and we played on one of the coolest,most dangerous, playgrounds around here. All in all, not a bad way to leave the summer behind.
And now it's Sunday and I am feeling good. Going to sit around and read, knit, garden, and drink so much coffee. And best part? Tomorrow is Labor Day! Three day WEEKEND!!! so I will probably make tonight a party night and stay up past 9:30 (yes, I am an old lady) and binge watch the rest of season 1 of Playing House (fucking fantastic show) before it goes away and I don't get a chance.
Lofty goals, but I think I can manage.
So how about you? Is this a three day weekend for you as well? Hopefully so and hopefully you are spending it doing you, and having fun, relaxing and remembering not to labor or at least not labor to hard.
Some internet stuff for you to peruse if you want.

Me and this little made some donuts, but screw the donuts(sweet potato with chocolate frosting).. look at the overalls! I decided a long time ago that when I have kids, they will be wearing nothing but overalls. Osh Gosh FOREVER! 
FARM SHARE PICK UP!!! I was starting to go through veggie withdrawals.

A late Christmas gift from Nicks mom. Every year she gives us s few of her hand thrown pieces….. love!!
And I gave the mister a haircut!!! He has been asking me for about 2 months now to cut it, but for some reason we just haven't gotten around to it. So finally this week it happened, and I can see his lovely face again!
How can you not be happy when your piece of ginger looks like a little man. (right after I took this picture I cut his legs off)
Flowers from our garden last summer….. Sunflowers are my favorite (these are teddy bear sunflowers)…. I love looking back at old picture, especially ones from opposite seasons, like flowers in winter or pictures of snow in summer. There like little glimpses of whats to come. I can not say it enough, I am so lucky to live in VT..we have excellent seasons so there is always something to look forward too!
