I know, I know, it's officially fall but I'm just not ready to accept this minor seasonal detail.
Remember when you were a child and everything was the best because you were young and carefree? Well, I had one of those summers. It was the best!
I've been really bad about posting so I'll have to do a highlight of the season. Our summer was filled with fun times, great friends and family ~ a recipe for the best summer ever! :)
We spent a fabulous day at the Americas Cup Series. It was a gorgeous day. The weather was absolutely perfect! There was a light breeze, it was sunny and low humidity. It was so nice to have a laid back day with Kevin.
*I learned the hard way of the importance of good {as in not the cute and fun ones} sunglasses after spending the entire day in hazy sun reflecting off the water. I burned my retinas and am still paying for this many weeks later!*
We celebrated holidays and many special times.
My sweet son surprised me with a package of Lilly goodies. It was filled with all the important essentials for days at the beach! Yup, I raised him right :)
I'm going to miss dinners on the patio with fresh farmer's market goodies. Not to mention my favorite summer sipper ~ ruby red grapefruit margaritas.
We were so fortunate to spend lots of time with good friends {welcome baby Graham} attended local events, and got away for a great vacation compliments of my husband planning.
Best of all, was the time I spent with my family! I love them tons. If only they didn't live so far away. Nicholas wasn't exactly "feeling" like photos after his day of golfing {and they say girls are the emotional ones ~ Ha!}
The weather hasn't made too big of a shift towards fall yet so I'm trying to hold on to the warm sunshine filled days and ignore the reports that we are in for a cold snowy winter.
Yes, denial is my best friend! :)

Oh, I am right there with you...just a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. I can't even enjoy fall for the dread of winter that follows! Bleh!

Oh wow! I've always wanted to attend the America's Cup. It looks like a great time. Such beautiful vessels. I've always wanted to learn to sail after going on my friend's boat.
I'm happy to hear that you and your family had a fantastic summer. You looked beautiful in your white dress and hat.
