Summer went by FAST! We have had such a fun few months here and I am bummed to go into “back to school” mode! At the beginning of the summer, I started my #OperationSummerFun movement… and I haven’t really been too good at following through! I’ve been having so much fun, that I have been seriously slacking on the blog… which is the main reason I haven’t been posting about it.
However, I checked the hashtag the other day and was thrilled to see more than 160 posts on Instagram!! SO AWESOME! I decided to do a picture roundup of just a few of my favorite posts! (starting with my own… obviously! ha!)
 |
| My sweeties! |
 |
| Cousins are the best! (how cute are my sweet nephews?!) |
 |
| Fun fishing |
 |
| Family bike ride! (I totally almost crashed after taking this selfie) |
 |
| Alana from Parenting from the Heart blog had a ton of cute #OperationSummerFun posts! |
 |
| My kids would have LOVED this ship! Check out At Home with the O’Neil’s! |
 |
| This picture made me crack up… The caption was, “He’s not gonna believe me the next time I tell him he’ll be ok” Check out Ai’s blog over at Less 2 More! |
 |
| Jackson Pollock watch out! |
 |
| Here’s another one from Mary… she had a TON of awesome #OperationSummerFun pics on Instagram! Be sure to check out her blog, I need a Playdate! |
 |
| I just love Aubrey, who blogs over at 53 Weeks. Aren’t her two boys the cutest?! |
 |
| Here’s another one from At Home with the O’Neils and this one was hysterical. You see that is NOT Jeannine’s husband. Since they were doing a canoe trip they all decided the best way to prevent everyone from killing each other was to do a wife swap! She went with her brother-in-law and her hubby went with her sister-in-law.. so NO fighting! Best idea ever! |

Thank you! It went by too fast!
Such a cute post:) I love this!
Thank you! I wish it would always be summer.. 🙂
So cute! Love all these summer pics. It's going to be 100 here today so there will be plenty of more beach days and ice cream for us.
Yes summers don't end when school starts, but it def feels different 🙁
I've loved following along with Operation Summer Fun this summer…it looks like y'all have had a great summer!
We did!! I am so sad to see it go..
ADORABLE photos! Summer is almost over–so hard to believe!
This whole year is just flying by! I cant get over it!
So cute! Love all the pictures. Looks like everyone had an awesome summer!
Yes it was a lot of fun and we did luck out with great weather this summer… and our AC only broke once! ha!
So cute! Love all the pictures. Looks like everyone had an awesome summer!
Lovely pictures! Seeing the smiles on the kiddos faces is what makes it all worth it.:)
Thank you! I know.. the summer is really all about them now, it is awesome. 🙂 Have a wonderful week!
So sad to see it go, but I can't wait for fall ♥
Yes I think the only thing that makes the fact that summer is over manageable is that FALL comes next! (the most awesome season EVER!)
Usually it is the children that are bombed about going BTS, but looks you guys have a super fun summer.
Yes we are all sad about it… boo 🙁
Your family is amazing! So sweet!
Also, I now realize I didn't do enough with my kids. And don't have any pictures 🙁 ughhhhhh. Maybe I can just cram some in now, and back date them?! 😉
Hahaha I love that idea! And there is still Labor Day weekend coming up so you still have lots of time! 😉
I love the roundup! It looks like theres a lot of summer fun being had 🙂
Yes! I need to clean out my phone since my summer fun is clogging it up! ha! 😉
I had fun taking part in #OperationSummerFun! It's nice seeing all the creative and fun things people did. Now back to reality … Haha!
You had one of the best pictures, I could NOT stop laughing!! 😉
Such a fun idea to round up some of the fun summer things people have done. Love this.
Thank you! I love how it turned out and how people took part.. I think I will give it another go next summer!
How did we through summer with no vacation? Well, maybe we can slip in an early fall one? Next summer I need operation summer fun!
I've had so much fun with Eve this summer, it was really nice to take a step back from blogging to focus on her. I totally forgot to use the hashtag on my Instagram posts!
Yay I made it twice! Thanks for sharing Lauren! I too feel like I have been lacking on the blog this summer. I tried to convince myself if I posted more on Instagram it would be like a visual blog and replace my summer laziness. However, that failed too. I was too busy living life this summer. I even have a summer blog post recap, waiting for the final touches.
Great post and it was fun to see how everyone interpreted #OperationSummerFun. I can't wait to attempt this next summer!
As for the Friendship ship in Salem, MA. You should make a family trip to our area in New England. There is so much history and I would love to be your tour guide and we would definitely check out the ship!
