When I was young, it was a happy time to pull up to the cottage and be greeted by my grandparents! The promise of a great summer where in the hugs of welcome!
This followed by sad goodbyes at summers end, said at the stairs (tradition being that a family picture was taken on the stairs) before entering the car to begin the long drive home.
Well, we kept up tradition (finally!) - the twins are now old enough to tell them we need a picture. This doesn't mean its perfect... but it captures the family before they say goodbye to summer, and hello to fall.
Since we still have 2 more short trips planned to our special place, we won't say goodbye... but we sure to do see signs of the end of summer!
