Technically, it is still summer. Especially here in LA, where we are experiencing the hottest days of the year so far. But September is here whether you like it or not, so you can now begin the mental mind-shift process that happens this month as we go back to school, break out the boots and jackets, and prepare ourselves for shorter, colder days.

ALMOST. In the spirit of hanging onto the last days of summer, here are our picks for the most recent Pink Ball Photos of the Week (PBPOTW) theme, SUMMER!

Each member chosen will receive 50 SocialVibe points. For your own chance at winning, check out this week's theme below.

"So, in my family summer seems to be the season for road trips. Meaning driving for twelve hours through the mountains with two dogs, two little brothers who have a rather LARGE lung capacity,and a mother who is only awake due to Starbucks Coffee. The perfect moment for a Pink Ball photo...

Oh,and I probably should mention that one of the purposes of this trip was to see the Harry Potter Exhibit in Chicago. So I brought my Pink Ball... Alas, they didn't allow any pictures to be taken in the actual exhibit, I had to settle for the really nifty stand up poster outside a gift shop I know it's late but I thought it was rad. "
