Summer in Snapshots: Week Two

Doing these posts has been so refreshing.  It's forcing me to get out my camera more and think a little harder about what I want my sweet people to remember about summer.

And we're having FUN!

Thank you so much to sweet Amber at Starfish for the great idea and hosting the link every week.

Our week in snapshots won't even do it justice, but it's a great keepsake for how tightly we're embracing summer and our long days in the sun.

A rowdy family dinner with aunts, uncles and cousins that lasted for HOURS.  I am so glad that I wasn't a patron in that restaurant that wasn't with us!

The Beach.  The Beach.  The Beach.
Different local beaches on different days.
All terrific.  Really terrific.

We tried Stand Up Paddle for the first time and LOVED it.  All of us.  E went out with The Athlete and I took The Princess.  All four of us loved it for different reasons and I went back the next day for a SUP fitness class with my girlfriends.

The Athlete did basketball camp and The Princess was at The Ocean Institute.  They're both at Beach Camp this week.
Rough Life.

We've done no less than 8 loads of towels since my last Summer Snapshot post and it makes me happy because it just means that we're getting dirty and having fun.

AND, last but definitely not least, The Princess rode her bike without training wheels.
For a long time.
We're so proud of her and looking forward to more fun with everyone on their bikes.

Summer feels so good right now.  We are truly blessed.
