It's August Already

Summer is almost gone and I don't think i enjoyed it much.
My summer usually starts with a trip to Richmond Missouri for the annual Mushroom Festival. 
The first weekend in May. We usually get our first sun burn of the year then.



This year we drove into town to snow, and that seems to have set the pace for the whole of summer.

Our garden was late getting planted because of inclement weather.



However we are now enjoying the peppers, tomatoes and green beans. Hopefully the first frost won't come too soon.

The pool was also late getting open, also because of the weather. We have had a few good days of swimming and enjoying  the outdoors, and we have a few more activities to look forward too.

I am however gearing up for the cooler weather by adding this to my etsy shop yesterday.



And it is never too early to start thinking about christmas gifts.
