Summer's not over yet...

There's a fountain in downtown Spokane.

It's new-ish, having been finished at the very end of last summer.

We've been there many times, but always after doing something downtown, and never in swimsuits, so the kids have never really been able to play in it properly.

So yesterday, I told them to get their swimsuits on, cause we were goin' to the fountain.

And we did.

So while the countdown to school starting has officially started in the back of my mind, I'm still enjoying the last bit of summer.

How could I not?

    Wow, those are some gorgeous photos woman!! Now I have to go read your blog for the last two months and see what you've been up to while I've been away!

    By the way, thanks for the kick in the pants to get blogging again...*LOL*...I've missed it but it's so easy to just be rolling along in one direction and not go back to something because of busy-ness, ya know?

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want.

I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well.
