What’s this? The official LAST weekend of Summer? Where did it go? I have heard many people say “wait until you have kids, the season’s will fly by” boy were they right. My son is not even of school age just yet, but this Summer has truly slipped away all too soon.
I’m so happy we made the most of what our city has to offer and took advantage of some festivals, park dates and trips to the farm. Not to mention the monthly races where our man of the house competes which this year took us to the Toronto Indy, Three Rivers and the world famous Mosport (Canadian Tire Motorsports Park) in Bowmanville which serves as host of the final race of the year starting tomorrow. Our family is truly a racing family and we love supporting “Daddy”.
So, this long Summer weekend, make the most of the weather and great outdoors. Celebrate that the Summer of 2014 may be coming to an end, but in only 9 short months, it will be back again 🙂
