Good to the last drop.

It's no secret... I love fall.  I can't wait!  I love sweaters with my flip flops. I love coffee on the deck with just enough chill in the air that makes you stick your nose over the top of your mug. I love snuggling with my husband on the patio without a sweat mess.  I like when the leaves fall to the ground, making it a little easier to snoop on the neighbors.  I look forward to the awkward costumes that I will make my family wear for Halloween (and Thanksgiving... oh, and Christmas).  The stews and cinnamon rolls in my near future make it hard to sleep.  However, we are squeezing every little ounce of fun from the hot weather that hangs around. 

Like early morning trips to the zoo.

Making yard work... fun. 

And trips to grandma and grandpa's pool.

I love our little weekend getaways to Oklahoma.  It's so quiet and relaxing, and Emma's grandma and grandpa get a chance to play.  Brett's mom found all kinds of toys and books from her own babies, including the lincoln logs that Brett's grandpa made for him and his brothers.  They were a big hit with Em.

We made a little visit to Woolaroc just outside of Bartlesville, and made our way over to my moms house in Owasso, then to my grandpa's place in Claremore.

We have done a lot of traveling these last few weeks, and made a lot of fun memories.  It's been a wonderful (hot) summer shared with a lot of people we love.  Emma is a lucky little girl to have so many people in her life that adore her!

As much fun as we have had, we are ready to stay home for awhile and fall into cooler weather.  Summer, we have squeezed every ounce of warm juice from the lemon you gave this season and made a tall refreshing drink... but it's time to go.  Hello September!!

Have a great week everyone!!
