the last of the summer light

I took this picture a couple of evenings ago. The sun was setting and the boys had been playing together most of the day. But then it reminded me that summer is coming to an end. No more sleeping in and eating breakfast when it is almost lunch time. No more late night movie nights on a Wednesday. No more spontaneous activities. No more playing minecraft for way too long during the days. (not too sad about that one). 

We didn't do anything extravagant this year. We had a great balance of boredom, adventure, laziness, and friends. And that made it a good, memorable summer. I'm going to miss it. A lot.
