Time Flies

         I don't know about everyone else, but to me it always seems like the summer always flies by no matter what I am doing that summer. Weather I am working my tail off, taking classes, or being a lazy bum I swear the summer travels at lightning speed! The summer always has a lot going on, my birthday (actually about 2/3 of my family's birthdays are in the summer!), trips, graduations, major friend bonding since we are scattered all over the place during the school year and in the last few years weddings have become a normal summer event too. Anyways since it moves so quickly I seem to get nostalgic about it more than I do any other season. Around the end of July I am always caught by surprise that it is almost over. I also seem to get some of the best, most entertaining and enjoyable photos from the summer time. Here are some from the last several years :)
