Summer is such fun - with a teen going to work at summer camp and a 7 year old staying home with me, it's going to be a different one, thank God I have two sisters with young kids too!<br /><br />And I liked your fuzzy, cookie dough, mellon flavor teeth story.<br /><br />You're writing style is easy and relaxed, enjoyed the read for sure!<br /><br />P.S. Love the simplicity of your blog look, did you do your own header or have someone else design it? I'd like to pare down on my site.<br /><br />Thanks and have a nice weekend!Susan Skitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13871921369901815459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-50283258611637576512009-06-06T14:34:58.482-05:002009-06-06T14:34:58.482-05:00We started summer too. Last night on the way home...We started summer too. Last night on the way home from our church friend's/neighbor's pool (is there ANYTHING better than have a church friend who is also your neighbor AND has a pool AND all their kids are out of college OR NEARLY out of college so they need YOUR kids to come and use the pool?) I told the kids that it was only the second day of summer and we'd already played two board games, had icecream once, been swimming twice, and gone out to eat once. Victoria and I decided to keep a list of summer fun things. . .with TALLY marks (this is the type of thing my girl enjoys) so that at the end of the summer we can look back over to quantify just HOW MUCH FUN we had!<br /><br />It has things like camp, icecream, snowcones, popcorn, swimming, bike riding, visiting grandparents, friends over to play, sleepovers, Legos, arts and crafts, etc. We've already started with the tally marks.Roxannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03483570734127165995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-22867497803187838742009-06-06T12:30:36.108-05:002009-06-06T12:30:36.108-05:00Had to come back to say, not that I'm begrudgi...Had to come back to say, not that I'm begrudging you the wonderfulness. I hope it didn't come across that way. I'm just saying it's one of my regrets. Enjoy every single moment of it with your precious girl.Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757963698816530787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30016058.post-39218700526327166252009-06-06T12:28:07.035-05:002009-06-06T12:28:07.035-05:00Its sounds perfect and entirley lovely and makes m...Its sounds perfect and entirley lovely and makes me just a little green with jealousy. Because I've had to work even though it was from home, I have never had to "freedom" to sleep in and just go with the flow of the day.
