This week the chiclets and I get out of school for the summer. This is the earliest end to a school year in recent memory.
It's time for flip flops everywhere.
A little relaxing in an old porch chair.
A little time spent lounging under the pool umbrella.
Perhaps I might even catch a farmette sunset or two.

Hi Michelle,summertime is time for flip flops for sure, love the red chair on the porch.Warm Blessings Francine.
ReplyDeleteOut already! The twins have 2 more weeks of preschool, and Pierce has 3 more weeks of Pre-K and then they'll be home.
ReplyDeleteSummer is almost here! However we've had summer temperatures already, as usual. Great warm weather shots!
ReplyDeletewoo hoo! early release for good behavior (and no snow days!) :)
ReplyDeletelove the porch chair and fence shots!!!
I remember that wonderful feeling of school being out. The photo of the flip flops remind me of the 'thongs', which is what we used to call them (not to be confused with stringed undergarment, ha!) Have a sweet time gearing up for summer. xo
ReplyDeleteMichelle -- Lots of relaxing, reading, photography shots -- I can just imagine it all now. You are surely a summer time person. -- barbara

It seems awfully early for summer vacation to begin, but I think I remember you going back to school around the beginning of August, so I guess the calendar is just shifted down there. Enjoy your time off.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! I really like the little red chair and the fence line! I remember counting the days till the end of school with my kids! I've got my flip flops already worn in! Great summer weather here in WA this week! Enjoy your first week! xx
ReplyDeleteVery evocative summer snaps - We have 2 months to go before school summer holidays in England. The exam season has started here this week ;-(
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your summer!!Hope it's relaxing for ya
ReplyDeleteUmm... yes please!!
ReplyDeleteOur cruise is next week and I think that's the perfect opening for a fabulous summer!!
My grands are ready- and yes, summer came early this year. Last year they didn't get out until the middle of June- but we had a lot of snow days.
ReplyDeleteYou are making summer sound so wonderful! Love the photos, especially the chair!!
ReplyDeleteHappy beginning of summer for you and the chicklets!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
Unofficially, the summer season begins her tomorrow. The kids are in school till the end of June though.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations and enjoy your summer!! xx
ReplyDeleteYes, have a nice long summer!!
