  2. Actually, I think it might just be the Southern Hemisphere that do the season change on the 1st of the month rather than the equinox? So you're still in summer eh?

  3. Nikki- Yup- September 21 is our usual first day of the Season change... when the sun passes over to the other side of the equator.
    This year it's the 22nd that it happens.
    I'll be squeaking a bit more through, if I can. :)

  5. Marshmallows and toothpicks and more, oh my! :-D

    I noticed the first picture especially, because we read "The Best Nest" recently. What a funny book.

    Wow... August's last day. Oh, wait. It's already September now!
