Hope everyone’s summer was fun and relaxing! It’s hard to believe that it’s coming to an end and we are headed to the colder months already. September in recent memory has been pretty warm so at least we have that going for us mid-westerners. I’m trying to listen to a lot of happier and sun shiny music lately to emotionally prepare my self for what’s coming. Just to put it out there to remember for later here are some summer highlights to share with you in no particular order:
