Happy Labor Day! Can you believe Summer is unofficially over??? I know the first day of Fall isn't for a few more weeks, but I think it's safe to say summer has ended! Once again, I'm linking up with Shoes to Shiraz where she prompts us to share a monthly recap in numbers... you can read my past posts here. I love recapping our months and am really enjoying this format so far! Here is my August in numbers...
Number of...
Nights in a hotel: 3
This month we spent a weekend in Rhode Island with family and a weekend in Williamsport visiting friends. Thankfully Noah loves staying in hotels and is already asking to go to one again!
SPF used: 30 all the way to 100
I have a whole bag full of sunscreen, from spray (for the body) to lotion (for the face) with a range of SPF!
Days spent at the pool: 11 (plus 4 more at the hotel)
Chris joked when we got the August membership that I needed to take Noah 3 times a week to make it financially make sense (versus going as a guest with friends). We spent the majority of our days at the pool, so I think we succeeded!
Years married: 6
Last weekend, Chris and I celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary by going out to dinner. You can read all about it here.
Meals eaten out: 15
With all of our weekends away and grabbing dinner when at the pool, we ate out a lot! I hope to cook a lot more this month!
Miles driven: 1,395
While we do plenty of local stuff, we logged quite a few miles on the weekends and by taking a few day trips to the beach. Good thing Noah doesn't mind the car!
Characters seen: 4
The photos Noah took with the mascots at the Little League World Series crack me up!!!
Pins collected: 6
Besides meeting popcorn and french fries, Noah also collected a bunch of pins at the Little League World Series. We even ordered him a pin display case so he can keep them all in one spot :)
Photos taken: 1,193
Yup, I take A LOT of photos! And this number is after I delete the bad ones from my DSLR and iPhone!
Days til school starts: 2!!!

I can't wait to see how school goes for Noah this year. I have some "wish list" ideas for what I want C to learn.
ReplyDeleteNo, no, no, no! Summer isn't over until Beth goes on vacation. I am pretty sure that has to be a rule :P. But seriously having a vacation planned LATE in the summer has made it seems so much longer this year.
ReplyDeleteWe just went to a minor league game and Simon met all the mascots like Noah did! Happy almost school!
ReplyDeleteThe French fry made me laugh our loud. Nice!
ReplyDeleteaw, I love the hand-written note :) Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I am surprised that you guys were only at the pool 11 days out of the month! It seems like you guys visited at least once a day. 1,395 miles of adventuring! I love the mascot pictures. I hope Noah has the best first day back!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun month! You sure packed a ton of good things into your days. Those mascot photos were too cute :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, those food mascots are so funny, cute pictures! Happy anniversary!
