Where has the summer gone?

It seems as though the cold winter months of Wisconsin drag on forever, but the enjoyable summer days and nights of summer come and go with the blink of an eye.  July will be over in no time at all and the lazy days of relaxing by the pool, having barbeques with family and friends, and savoring every moment the kids come up to me with their adorable popsicle stained lips, begging for another one will soon (too soon) be replaced with the homework, field trips, and Sunday School classes once again.

As I was flipping through  photos I had taken of our dogs, Oz and Hooch, earlier in the summer, I am beginning to feel much like them.

Where have the dog gone days of summer gone?
