Hello everyone and happy Monday! I am linking up with Tanya and the girls to start the week.

We had the best weekend full of celebrating! We celebrated the last weekend of summer hard! I read on our driveway for hours on Friday and Saturday. It was so sunny and hot and I loved every minute of it!

We also started celebrating my birthday! Today is my 39th birthday! We got together with some friends on Saturday night and our families came over on Sunday evening. We had some yummy summer dinners – burgers on the grill, taco salad, jalapeño dip from our garden, deviled eggs, cucumbers and onions, Caprese salad, and key lime pie. If that doesn’t taste like summer, I don’t know what does.

The back of my shirt looks like this. Perfect for me on the last weekend of summer!

One of my favorite birthday traditions is that cake plate. It was my grandmother’s, my mom’s, and now it lives at my house. We use it for every birthday cake/pie/dessert, and it sings happy birthday. ❤️

I am trying to embrace the first day of fall today, but it still feels like summer. We are supposed to have summer weather all week and I can’t wait! Bring on the sunshine!! ☀️ 😎 ☀️ 😎 ☀️

We have a fun week planned at school – science presentation, a favorite author returning, and a fun new 5th grade reading program.

I also have a little challenge for everyone this week. On Friday, I will hit DAY 1000 of my Run Streak!!! I am meeting a few girlfriends to run my mile. I would love for everyone to join me and run/walk/move for one mile too. I am so excited for this day and I hope that everyone can join in! If you do, post your picture on Instagram and tag me (@sunnyscp) or use #day1000runwithsarah. I hope to see you running!!

Have a great day full of sunshine and books!
