Can you believe that school is starting this week!?! Until recently, I’ve been waiting on baby #3 to make her appearance and trying my best to avoid the summer heat at local pools, splash pads, and natural watering holes… and sadly, many of these summer treats will be closing soon as the season ends. We’ve put together our annual round up of summer activities, listed in the order of their final day this year.
