Last weekend of Summer?

I feel like last weekend might just have been the last weekend of Summer, but if it was, I totally lived it up! I spent Saturday and Sunday afternoon life guarding at the pool (and subsequently getting sun-burned), and then I saw Eat Pray Love with some girlfriends.

The week has been cool and creamy, just how the tail end of Summer should be. Luck for us, it's not officially over 'til the 21st of next month!!
