Taking it day by day...

For the past few summers I worry a bit as summer approaches.  Will the kids have fun?  Do we have enough activities planned?  Too little?  

Summer has been here for about 4 weeks now and I am loving it...no schedules, just waking up every day and deciding what to do with the kiddies.  Well, Sophia did do camp last week for 4 mornings and we had to be there by 8:30am.  Ugh.  Yes, I can honestly say I was a bit cranky about the whole thing.

Summer is a nice break.  Not meant to be crammed with too much to do to 'fill the time'.  It is a time to enjoy the warm weather, play outside, take long bike rides, play in the sprinkler, go to the Botanic Gardens, go to the zoo, and of course, make our 12 mile ride to REI for lunch.
