Our short and sweet summer...

short hair to match the short summer!

I didn't get my bedroom done, but I finally got all the bedding!

Since the kid's school participated in an "extended school year" this year, summer is going to be abnormally short at our house. This has it's pros and cons of course. Pros: Since I'm home at the moment I have a few less weeks to entertain the bored kids, no one should be horribly lost once school starts again, and well, I can't think of an and...hmmmm... =0)
Cons: the summer is short, anything we really wanted to do will need to be crammed into 5 weeks, a couple of things will have to be pushed back to weekends in the fall, the kids have taken it upon themselves to be extra lazy, this means Mom constantly begging them to do something, ANYTHING...=0)
A couple things we will be doing for sure: Taking the kids to Lagoon. It has become a tradition to go every year and they love it, Lee and I love it, my niece Ainsley gets to go too, so it's really fun! Lee is taking me to my very first rock concert in August, so you know that will be fun also! The semi-annual "Swap meet" reunion will be on Pioneer Day weekend as well and we will be in attendance for that as well!
If we ever get the pool actually in the yard, we'll enjoy lots of swimming too! You know how it goes, you either have time or money, but never both! ...and thus goes our short and sweet summer, cramming it all in the best we can! =0)
