the birth of summer

Today we all worked together. We got our swimsuits on (and sunblock!), brought up the lifejackets from the basement, and rearranged the garage , moved the cars, and swept out the leaves.

I watched my husband and father-in-law pull the boat out of its winter home in the garage, and as it emerged from the shadow of our house into the morning sunlight, I was struck with the thought that this is really the "birth" of summer.
Other recent images I've captured that remind me that it's my favorite time of year:
...blowing bubbles

... my circle of friends
... kool-aid moustaches
... barefoot little girls in sundresses & pigtails

Happy Summer, y'all!
