July Stamp Club

That's right.....I said it.....JULY!  What the heck?  Where has summer gone?????  Remember, when you were little, summer seemed to last for-ev-ver.  Why does it seem to fly by now?  Do my kids still enjoy the long, lazy days of summer like I did?  Or does it seem fast for them too?  And why DOES school start before Labor Day?  I don't like that....not....one....bit.

Back on track-----Here is what you missed in July:
