Oh, Summer! Please don’t go! We barely got to enjoy your presence this year. Every year it seems like you just come and go like the wind. A tease. Moments of laughter, joy, elation…and then all of a sudden you are gone! Poof! Just like that!
I do have to say that there were many highlights of our Summer though.
You know how much I love Little One’s smile! Here are a few of our favourite Summer moments:
- Family time! Little One’s cousins visit us on the Island every Summer! Seriously, it’s the stuff Summer/childhood memories are made of!
- Beach time! Lots of it! I’m so thankful to live on a beautiful island where we are minutes away from beaches in every direction. Little One’s childhood memories will be filled with beach moments!
- Fun on the farm. Little One’s Summer has been filled with taking care of her animals (bunnies, cat, dog, chicks) and helping feed the cattle.
- Birthday moments! This Summer has been filled with birthday parties! There was even one weekend that Little One was invited to FOUR parties! Four in one weekend made for a busy weekend!
- Proud moments! Little One has been enjoying her riding lessons and the smiles on her face from accomplishment are just priceless.
Here are more of our #kindersmiles moments:
It’s certainly been a fun Summer (it’s not over yet)! I made the above #kindersmiles strip for Little One to remember what fun she had this Summer! These moments in our lives are fleeting, so I love having photos to look back on to remember all the great times!

What are some of your family’s favourite Summer moments?

My favourite memories are always around going hiking or camping in the summer.
I’m so happy to see that you and your loved ones had a memorable summer. I remember when I was little some of my favorite memories are going to my grandparents for big parties in their yard with all of my family around.
Your daughter is such a cutie! Looks like you had a great summer, just too bad it is over already 🙁
Spending time with my grandkids doesn’t matter what we are doing summer is so freeing
Glad to know you had an amazing summer, it’s gone by so fast!
Looks like you had a great summer, Christine! We did too, little one enjoyed fishing and camp fire s’mores, but it has went too fast for sure. Great idea from Kinder as well 🙂
love the photo strip! so cute, looks like you had a really great summer!
Wonderful array of smiles! You would be crazy to not smile when there is chocolate around, LOL
This has been a strange summer vacation. We went to Quebec without one daughter at the beginning of the summer, then went to a cottage and now we go to Ottawa without our son. All small vacations but no large family vacation. I am a bit sad but it seems each child has had a special time with just me.
Christine, I love the photos that you shared–such great ones! My family’s favourite summer moments include roasting marshmallows by the fire, and swimming in a beautiful lake.
Thanks so much, Jenna! Oooh! Roasting marshmallows and swimming in a beautiful lake = some of the best Summer moments!!!
