I must admit that I am soaking up every last bit of summer that is left! I've also been pondering all the memories that God has blessed us with these past three months...one of which is the many, many fun times I had with Joe & the girls at the Birkdale Fountains. We made it a regular family date to spend an hour plus just playing with Alathea in the fountains. At the beginning of the season she was a mere "distant admirer" of them, barely getting her feet wet. And then today she finally ran through the middle! She has to work up her courage over the entire season :).
I have also made it a "tradition" to bring the girls up to the fountains every time Joe has been out of town this summer...for some extra special mommy-girlies time to keep us happy while Daddy's gone. We also made it a "tradition" to get the $1.99 kids ice cream at Cold Stone once we are done. Its a very happy ending to a fun family time. More on that later...I'm thinking of doing the next few posts on "things I loved about summer"....just one more way to keep the season alive a bit longer!
