Summer's End

The Dreams in Fiber household got out of town for the last official weekend of Summer and headed to the lake.  I even got a bit of knitting done - but I can't show that project until November.  I've been hitting some snags with my current WiP's at the moment but those stories will be shared as the projects can be revealed :)

I was really impressed by the minions and their fishing skills.  They were casting like champs and little miss brought in a good-sized fish almost each and every cast.

The first one we thought was just weeds, but no...

"It's easy, Mom.  All you have to do is sit!"

Fish #2 (the very next cast...)

The hubby didn't want to get left behind so he caught this monster in response to her two.

Everybody got into the fishing and we all caught fish eventually, except for my MIL who was content to just watch.

The sun came out and things heated up so the minions decided they needed to get a little bit of air.

Gotta love that cold water on a hot day!

Little man even made some new friends over the weekend.

Want to know what happens when you run inside to grab your camera to take a picture of a silhouette and the lens fogs up the instant you take it outside but you snap a few shots anyway just to see how they turn out?

You can tell that Autumn is right around the corner; that buzzing energy to wrap things up before Winter hits is here.  I think I'm ready.  Of course I say that now...  In a few months I will be anxiously awaiting all the colors of Summer and the lazy days with no agenda but Summer will come around again in its own time and I'll be wrapping just about everyone I know in wool until it does.
