I'm thinking this will be my last time wearing shorts this year.

Whether the weather agrees with me or not, now that it is September I want to put my shorts away and move onto Fall clothes.

Even though school has started and I feel like summer is already over,

this weekend seems to make it more official.

Here are some of my summer highlights:

taking my niece to Medieval Times for her birthday

getting an extra week with some alone time with my nephew and niece

trying to be more adventurous

accomplishing some successful projects (sailboat tee, maxi dress, statement necklace)

I hope you had a great summer and are ready for Fall!

Now when is it an appropriate time to put up Fall decorations?

because I am ready.

A few summers ago, once school ended Chris referred to me many times as "Summer Katie."

Implying that in the summer I am a different person.

At first I was offended, thinking he must think (and then make others think) that I am unhappy, crabby and not as fun during the school year.

Then I was honest with myself. Let's be real here.

Who wouldn't be more relaxed, enjoyable and more fun to be around when they aren't working?

I'm pretty sure I am.

Well with today being the last day of school hello Summer Katie!
