Summer Fun

Ahhhh Summer!!
This summer has felt like a whirlwind - rushing in and twirling a bit and rushing out. 
We have had a wonderful time, full of adventure, time with family and friends, traveling and much more.
I thought, on our 7000 mile cross country trip I was going to get all kinds of books read and reviews written and have time to tell my tale.
NOT!

The trip was amazing, the sights incredible, the reading just didn't happen. The first day, I ended up car sick, and kind of decided I would just enjoy the view. The change in scenery across the US is pretty awesome to behold.  And when you have a chance to spend time with family that you rarely see, who wants to have their nose in a book? Maybe when I was younger, but now... time is too short, life too precious, books can wait!
I think I may have completed a total of one or two books this summer tops!
Hence why you haven't seen me here much on the blog. 
But on the flip side, we made memories that will last a life time.
But now... even though summer is not officially over, we are ready to get back to business, crack open the books. (kids for school - me for blog) and start on the next adventure. 
I will be spending a few weeks playing catch up with all the reading I am behind on, so you should be hearing from me pretty frequently.
And maybe on occasion I will slip in a little bit of the fun we had this summer.

I hope you have had a blessed and wonderful summer also.
I would love to hear about it.
