"Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each."---Henry David ThoreauToday I realized that our summer vacation was half way over. And I wanted to cry. (I doubt I'll ever really grow up.)Have they breathed the air? Tasted the drink?

A 4th of July Cover Up
I showed you the boys' shorts on Friday....and here is Hannie's. As I said before, I kind of decided to do an understated 4th this year, and seersucker was calling my name.And since we were going to be with family at the lake this year for the 4th, I knew that we would be in and out of swimsuits all day...so Hannie's outfit turned into a 4th of July Swimsuit cover-up complete with a rounded collar and a few pintucks on the front for details.I actually made this dress out of a Pottery Barn crib ...
