Backpacks and stuff

I'm starting to get the 'back to school' emails already.
I hate them.  Stop rushing summer away.
Most of them have been for backpacks...and boy are there some cute ones out there.


I love the argyle and polka dots from PB teen.
A lot of them are offering free shipping right now too.

Garnet Hill not only offers free shipping, but you also get a free matching lunch pack with purchase of a backpack.

Hanna Andersson has several cute prints.

You can always count on Lands' End  for a durable backpack that lasts.  Riley and Cooper each have one that has lasted them the last two years and still looks brand new.

LLBean is another reliable option with many solid and print options.

But, since it's still summer...and currently muy caliente, I'm more in the mood to look at these...

 Watermelon on a stick from here.

Or these free lemonade stand printables from One Charming Party 

My kids are currently out front playing 'who can stand on the blacktop with bare feet the longest'. 
Brilliant.
Wonder whose brain child that one was.
I just heard Cooper yell, "Try the tar spot, it's super hot!"
They must get their smarts from their daddy.
haha.
