Makin' a SPLASH all Summer Long...

Hi, friends!

I actually am a little emotional sharing this layout with you today as I realize how very close we are to the end of summer...maybe not weather wise...but...

Where we live, the kids to to "year-round" school.  This concept puzzles me because a.) it's not true and b.) well...it's just not true.  LOL!   Nevertheless, the kids start late July or early August, have a few longer breaks during the year, but then are only off about 8 weeks in the summer.   MY how time has FLOWN this summer.  We have a crazy busy schedule this week/weekend, next week is CHA, and then the kids start school the following Monday.   We are all prepared-school supplies have been purchased and everything labeled...but my heart does sink a bit knowing how fast this all occurred!

Over on the TGF Blog we are having another Scrapbooking Challenge and this week the theme is SUMMER FUN!

Looking at this layout, you can tell these two water babies are having just that-FUN.  And always so happy together.  HOORAY for having a sister, friend, cousin maybe (said as my "cousin/BFF is in TOWN visiting me!!)?  that you're HAPPIEST with when you're around :)

Til next time...

Awww what a fantastic layout! Summer does seem to go by way too fast. I understand what you are saying, but WOW kids must hate going back to school so soon! Thankful that here in NY our kids still start in Sept. and get out at the end of June! My summers always feel short!
Just LOVE LOVE LOVE your layout! Looks like they sure had fun!

Big Hugs,
