End of Summer...Wah!!!!!

Summer is my favorite season, closely followed by Fall so I am only slightly saddened by the cooler temperatures. I will miss those fun days at the beach and all the BBQs though. Anyway we celebrated all of this on Sunday afternoon at Crescent Park with our 2nd annual end of summer family picnic. This park is really beautiful and has a carousel that the kids love. I was proud of AJ for going on it this year! Last year he just chose to observe. Funny how he is so daring with some things and cautious with others. This was followed by,pizza, green salads, pasta salad, brownies and apple pie. Oh and plenty of soccer, football, hide and seek and tackling (nicely of course). And a nice walk along the shore with Grandma where they picked up some shells to bring home. This year we managed to avoid the dreaded poison ivy which was an added bonus!!!!!!
