A Letter To Summer
Yesterday I printed off several of these cute summer letter templates from Thirty Handmade Days.
It was a HOT one and we spent the morning at the pool for an early play date. When we got home and after we’d had some lunch, the kids sat down for a little quiet time and completed these sweet notes to pop in the mail before we head out to the {right coast}!
When they were all done and each box contained darling little drawings and cute elementary handwriting, I thought about sitting down and completing one myself! Instead, I decided to do mine in blog form and write my letter to SUMMER!
Dear Summer,
Here’s a little of what we’ve been up to since you arrived…
{GoPro-ing at the pool}
Finishing 6 week long projects that should NOT take 6 weeks…
{full reveal to come ~ stay tuned}
Catching the latest at the box office…
{we did not see 2 movies in one day…Holden just really loves this shirt! 😉 }
{Despicable Me 2 on opening day}
What I love best about you so far, Summer, is…
{quiet afternoons with a good book}
{concerts in the park}
My favorite memories with you to this point are…
{going on an adventure with this little pirate}
and
{getting a sitter and hanging out with this guy}
We’re almost halfway through with you, Summer….why must you go so fast?
The next two weeks will be spent creating new adventures and making new memories in a whole different spot on the map.
You’ve been good to us so far, but I know there’s lots more in store. You’re really good at inviting us to enjoy your warm, sunny days and your starry, chirping cricket-filled nights!
Thank you for always delivering…
Love your forever friend,
Amy xoxo

Thank you, Irene! The GoPro is Jay’s current obsession so I have to give him all the credit on those photos! 😉 Hope you’re also having a great summer! XO
