you say goodbye, i say hello

summer 2010 was all about
taking a break,
feeling the best i've felt in months,
acupuncture,
weddings, weddings, weddings,
grilling our food whenever possible,
watching 24, friday night lights, and food network,
showing my stuff on the golf course and proving to the husband that the golf lessons i had in 9th grade were worth every dime,
boycotting night games at the parents' house so that i don't run in to a snake,
shopping at the farmer's market,
blasting california gurls at every chance (and laughing when mike sings + dances along),
reading extremely loud & incredibly close, i need thee every hour, history of love,
re-reading old favorites crossing to safety, a wrinkle in time, the cricket in times square,
vacationing with family + friends,
experiencing tuacahn for the first time,
growing our first garden: cherry + roma tomatoes, corn, and peppers,
staying up way past my bedtime, and
a priesthood blessing of strength + courage

i think i'll remember summer 2010 as just what i needed. the perfect kind of summer, really. but i think i'm ready to see fall teach summer who's boss. good luck, fall, you have big shoes to fill.
