Summer’s End.

Labor day weekend is over :(  Which means summer is unofficially also over.  And if the weather in Wisconsin right now is any indicator, Fall is in full swing!  Yesterday and today were definitely sweatshirt and long pants days.  I do love Fall though so I am not 100% sad but just a little sad that another season has come to an end.  This weekend sure was a good one though so here is a recap of what we did…

Saturday – My sister and I did a nice and easy (for me ;) ) 5 mile run.  The weather was a bit hot and humid still at this point but that was short lived…  We finished with an average of 10:20 minutes/mile so not really too slow at all!  I should have still brought water but oh well!  After we got back from running, it started pouring rain… so needless to say, our plans to sail were quickly changed.  So my mom, aunt, sister, cousins and I went rock climbing instead!!  We found a place that has indoor rock climbing and this turned into the perfect activity for a rainy holiday weekend! We all had a GREAT time and I think I found my new favorite past time!  I think I climbed about 12 times on the “easier” walls and man was that exhausting…

This was a fun wall to go up!!

FiveFingers are good climbing shoes :)

Sunday brought a total change in the weather – a COLD one!  We still ended up having a great time sailing and then making a trip to the Sheboygan County Fair.  Note for next year, there are no gluten free food options at the SCF…  But the Monster Trucks were hilarious!!!

Sailing!

Ballistic!

Today has been much less exciting but relaxing all the same :)  We have picked some apples from the back yard, done some grocery shopping and I am now doing some laundry… fun, fun!  But we did take a very special family 5-K training walk to get the parents ready for the Hawaiian 5-K they are going to attempt ;)  And this little guy walked about 99.5% of the 5k also.  He is way too fit for an 8 pounder!  And now he is choosing not to eat dinner.  What a sass pot :)

Busy reading about the fair he missed...

Oh summer, you will be missed.  But I am hopeful that this is going to be a great fall and is going to make the not so goodness of the first 9 months of this year a distant memory :D  Until next year…
