Adieu Summer!

The weather is unpredictable here in the Pacific Northwest, and it's only during the month of August where warmer temperatures arrived. This summer seemed so short, so whenever it's sunny, we took advantage of it, and my girls got excited for a trip.

This weekend we visited the Swan Island Dahlia Festival in Canby, Oregon. The dahlias, which were the flowers blooming in the place we visited, grew over 350 varieties in 40 acres. The Swan Island Dahlia is open to the public during blooming season. It is also a beautiful sight to witness.

In the end, we had fun, and it was a perfect way to end the summer. It was also a chance to relax after a busy week, and to bond as a family.
