The unofficial start to summer is here. School is out and the weather is warm. It feels and looks like summer here in Mid-Missouri. We just have a few plans this summer. We hope to do a lot of outdoor activities like fishing, swimming and picnics. I hope to be able to pull the boys away from riding bikes and skateboards and hanging out with friends and do a little journaling with them. They both like to write and enjoy taking pictures so I'm hoping we'll be able to work it in this summer. If nothing else, I hope to fill my own journal with thoughts, dreams, photos, magazine cutouts and sketches...just like I used to do as a young girl.
However, I'm not a young girl anymore as my 25th high school reunion is this summer...GASP...how can that EVEN be possible? With age...and responsibilities like kids, a job and a house to run it's harder to feel those carefree summer feelings that I had when I was younger. Summers were magical and really seemed to go on forever. I hope to capture some of that in my journal this summer.
Here are some summer journals that are inspiring me...

Seems like a great idea and a great way to make memories of your summers! Enjoy your weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove this post. I laughed, though--your (gasp!) 25th high school reunion is coming up? Ha. Warren will be at his 40TH this summer (I'm 2 years behind him). I've been out of LAW SCHOOL longer than you have been out of high school! :)
