First Day Favorites
So after one last last hurrah at Legoland, which I don’t have any pictures of because I didn’t take my big camera because Phil got a nifty new little camera he wanted to try out but the battery died before we really got to use it so that day will have to just be briefly noted here and live in our memories because I am teetering dangerously close to being now three months behind and I just cannot linger on that thought too long before feeling overwhelmed because now Thanksgiving is NEXT WEEK. And Christmas is RIGHT AFTER THAT.
Gah.
Okay. Deep breaths.
First day of school. Back on August 25th. Which honestly doesn’t feel all that long ago.
More deep breaths.
