The days are all blending together and passing quickly now that we are back in school. Though they miss summer break, my girls are so happy that their homeschool group is meeting weekly again. This month should be pretty routine for us. We will enjoy this because we know things will get busier as we approach the upcoming holidays!
We are enjoying fall flavors and fall décor, but our weather is tenaciously resisting any movement towards cool temperatures. We’re still reaching the 90s, and the nights aren’t much cooler. I eagerly await the morning our temperature will have finally dropped enough that I can open the window and feel crisp, cool air. While we wait for these cooler temps, here are the meals we plan to eat (you can see past menus here).
