goodbye summer

labor day is traditionally the end of summer ~

time to put summer away & think about back to school & halloween approaching :D ~

classic old bubble wands ~

smarty cat bubble nip is the bubble stuff of choice around these parts ~

giant bubble wands ~

my son always loved drawing on the sidewalk with chalk ~

check out these weird veggie chalks with wiggly eyes.. lol ~

chalk games remind me of all the time toxic spent playing hopscotch on the sidewalk in front of her house ~

& countless summer afternoons playing jacks ~

jacks in tin ~

in summertime there was always someone out front playing frisbee, sometimes a whole group ~

more games of old for bored kids in summer ~

marbles ~

a multitude of marbles in a cool tin ~

marbles history ~

marble types ~

marble games ~

i'm more of a marble collector than a player ~

our marbles are all kept in a big mjb coffee tin in the game cupboard ~

because we wouldn't want to lose any ~
