Cheers to Summer - A bittersweet moment

· · Comments

The end of August is always a bittersweet time – it's a sign of summer's end, with shorter days that burn bright.

It seemed like yesterday that we were celebrating the arrival of summer. Why must the summer fun end? Recently I expressed my readiness for fall, but that doesn't mean I won't miss all the beautiful things summer gave us. When days get cold and dark, it's important to remember the hot summer days that made life delightful. Those very HOT summer days filled our lives with much to be thankful for.

To help you stay warm all year long, not just in the summertime, here are summer joys to remember all year. May they help you dream of summer, sunny days, beach days, and everything in between.
