QotD: The Best Part of Summer '06

What was the highlight of your summer?

I know I can't pick just one.  The summer was full, we were busy, and we did a lot of great things.

• Over a long weekend, we took a vacation to Seattle. (photos tagged seattle)
• I helped planned Lisa and Jon's wedding and then we participated in the wedding weekend. (posts tagged wedding)
• We drove a bunch:
• The summer started off with a fun drive in the gorge.
• We spent several different days downtown Vancouver.
• We went to our favorite mall that's a bit further away on several occasions, including our anniversary.
• We watched a lot of movies this summer (movies tagged netflix)
• I read more books from the library this summer (books tagged library)
• I spent a lot of time with family and watched Leah grow up, and get ready to welcome baby Leonard to the world, too.
• We had two visits from my in-laws.
• I moblogged a lot, and blogged way more than recently too. (posts tagged moblog)
• We walked more throughout the whole summer.
• I worked a lot, but I worked on Vox.  And that really is awesome, I love Vox. :)

It was a good summer, no doubt!  And even though I'm sad it's mostly over, thinking towards the fall and winter and maybe slowing down a touch does make me a little happy.  When at the store last night, seeing apples and piles of acorn squash thinking about potato season is a happy part of the fall.  And the leaves outside are just starting to change and that's pretty too.  I'll miss the summer but fall's not all bad.
