Back to Reality!
Just coming off of Labor Day weekend and a break here, we had a great one! It was so nice to have some free time with both my girls and my hubby! The weekend was spent hiking, exploring, playing and just enjoying the beautiful weather we were lucky enough to enjoy. It was 91 here yesterday and today is expected to reach 93! That's almost unheard of for September in the Northeast!
We also released our butterflies this weekend, we like to hatch some every Summer. It was the perfect way to end our weekend on a sweet note! Luckily, we have a butterfly bush and they hung around to get a snack before flying off into the sunset (literally!) The girls were also thrilled when one landed on them!
So, this week will be all about playing catch up and staying cool. Easy, light dinners and snacks are on the menu. We're also in full Back to School mode which means I tighten our budget a bit, in preparation for the upcoming holiday season.
Hope you had a wonderful holiday and are off to a great week! Enjoy your Tuesday and I'll back soon!

How fun to have been able to release your butterflies this weekend. What a great idea.
ReplyDeleteI love the photos today.
Sending a Back to School Hug,

Hugs back to you Carla! Thank you :)!
DeleteYou have some beautiful temperatures following your heat wave. We finally got them this morning after a storm moved through. Absolutely LOVELY out now :)
ReplyDeleteLove the photo's... And LOVE that you raise butterflies! So wonderful. I am trying to help them out by letting milkweed grow.
Stay cool!
Looking forward to a cool down for certain! :)
DeleteIt was fun to raise butterflies and sad to let them go. Such a cool experience. Your Labor Day weekend sounded perfect. It was hot here too! We got away to the beach and Miss High School and I had a girls weekend because my hubby was away. Back to reality today!
ReplyDeleteA trip to the beach sounds like the perfect way to close out Summer! Best of luck to your daughter and these first days back!
DeleteIt was a hot one here in Ohio too. I would love to hear more about this butterfly hatching! Sounds so cool, but I have never done it.
ReplyDeleteWe try to do it every Summer! I'll hopefully blog more about it soon!
DeleteWe did this only once...and it was so awe-inspiring! You are seriously the best mom, Jess. You give your girls SO many wonderful experiences :)
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks Cathy! It's a wonderful experience to share with them!
