Лето – потрясающая пора. Я с большим нетерпением ожидала каникул, и вот наконец они настали.

В первую неделю каникул я вместе с ребятами из художественной школы ходила на пленер. Мы там изображали цветы, деревья, траву, и много чего еще. После пленера я несколько раз ездила в деревню. Мы ездили туда всей семьей, чтобы оказать бабушке с дедушкой. Иногда я оставалась в деревне ночевать. А когда возвращалась домой, то навещала подружек и ходила с ними гулять.

А потом началась знойная пляжная пора. Мы с сестрой почти ежедневно ездили на пляж, где купались и загорали.

Увы... Лето промчалось очень быстро! И уже снова пора в школу.
