Lasting Memories-A Summer's End

This week at Lasting Memories we are celebrating the end of summer, and we would like you to show off what you do to end summer. With the boys both in college one of our rituals is returning to college. My layout is from when we took James to Purdue last year to start his college career. So here's a peek into the incredibly small dorm rooms at Purdue. And it is much smaller than my dorm room was the University of Michigan!
