Summer has officially begun & I am LOVING it.
As soon as the weekend began, I felt like a huge weight had been lifted.
No school for 2.5 months. Hooray!
I love the lazy days of summer.
This summer I was very intentional about our schedule. It is very un-scheduled.
We have a couple trips planned, but day to day is very wide open (besides swim lessons).
I kept it unscheduled on purpose...I want to have the freedom and flexibility of having lots of hang out time with the girls & with friends. Impromptu playdates & pool parties? Bring them on!
We made a Summer List last year and I plan on making one every summer!
It makes me be a little more intentional with our summer and I love lists....it feels SO good to cross things off lists!

Kate's excitement when I told her I didn't have to go to work for over 2 months!
Kate and I made the Summer List again this year while Claire was napping.
Claire + Sharpies = Not a good idea.
We came up with some fun ideas for this summer.Check it out:
Can't wait to get some of these crossed off!
My personal favorites that she added are:- Help Claire share
- Teach Claire the ABC's
When Claire woke up we asked her what she wanted to put on the summer list.
Claire's Summer List:
1. Go to Mimi's
2. Go to Grandma's
3. Go Swimming
4. Meet Belle
I think Summer 2011 is going to be a good one!
Oh those are fun sharpies! Love the list and all of the memories to be made this summer!
ReplyDeleteI love that you involve your girls in making the list! How fun! And the item to help her sister share is too precious :)
ReplyDeleteLove it! It's even more cute to read the additions for her sister
ReplyDeleteDisney World has 2 really cool water parks. Although Typhoon Lagoon is more kid-friendly.
ReplyDeleteOh man how I love Sharpies!!! Your list is great this year and you are going to have some fun times, that's for sure! My friend's son told her just the other day that work is awful (because she works daily) and is the worst thing ever invented...lol. Enjoy your non-working days soaking up the sun and those sweet girls.
