At the beginning of August, we went to an outdoor showing of Goonies that combined three of Nora’s favorite things in the world: being outside, live music, and macaroni and cheese. Not to mention some of her (and my) very favorite people. Don’t worry, I have already forgiven Sarah and Mallory for sticking pens in my hair while I was lying on the blanket.


The girls and I let Blake and Nora get to bed at a reasonable hour, then headed to Wal-Mart for midnight purchases of Breaking Dawn. Unfortunately, no one told me to take off my “I was bitten” pin before we went into the coffee shop, so I embarassed myself in front of the barista. Mew!

Farewell, Summer. I hardly knew ye.
