snapshots of summer.


Admiring this crazy-beautiful sky after the last sunset in Aruba.

Now that it's nearing the end, I realize that this summer was a pretty perfect one. Immediately after school let out there was one thing after another to enjoy. It started with an extra long visit from one of my closest Cleveland friends, followed by trips to Georgia, Aruba, Virginia and Philly, and is now winding up with a few inspiring weeks at work and a big move this weekend (eek!). Though with the start of the school year and the packing/unpacking that's looming over me it doesn't feel like there will be much time in the coming weeks to reminisce, I'm ready to do my best to get posting again! Here are a few of my favorite moments from the last couple of months and I'm looking forward to sharing more soon!

What are you going to remember most about this summer?

Playing dodgeball with my students on the last day of school. 

Sharing a much needed glass of milk after accidentally chewing on the spiciest pepper ever (and watching T fail in his attempt to prove I was overreacting about the spiciness.)

Laying on a raft for a week straight at a friend's heavenly river house in rural Virginia.

Relaxing by the campfire with my canine bestie in the Georgia mountains.
