Goodbye, Hello

It was a rare treat, the weather decided to have perfect timing.  Just as we were having a final round of summertime pleasure, the first hint of fall showed up in a crisp, fresh feeling in the air.  Our adieu included lots of time at the pool, a family hike, sporting new alphabet gear made by “Auntie” Kay, bidding farewell to the diaper pail (yippee!) and trying in our hearts to memorize, to capture the essence of these moments with Ben and Clara.  We joyfully welcome fall festivities and to summer, we extend deepest thanks for the memories.
