see ya, summer: day one.


Since Zac finished his finals for his summer semester at school last week, we decided to take the two weeks that he is homework-free and do something special each night together. And since summer is practically ending, we decided to dedicate this time to saying goodbye to summer 2012 (and hello to fall!).

On Monday, we drove over to Cafe Rio right after work, and ordered a pork salad to share (because Cafe Rio's meals are too huge to eat by yourself). When we got our order, we drove to the park just east of the library on Center Street where we sat on a blanket, ate our salad, and listened to a band playing in the background on the other side of the field. For Family Night, we read Family: A Proclaimation to the World, and then talked about what life would be like this time next year. The weather was perfect, and so was the food. It was one of my favorite nights spend with my husband--something as simple as eating dinner at a park.

We ended the night by going to Smith's and buying two quarts of ice cream (the perks of having different tastes), and watched The Office.
Summer, you've been good, and we like celebrating you so far.
