I'm here...

We've been super busy. Too busy. Two more weeks and Big Boy goes back to school. But between now and then, we still have two trips planned. As summer is coming to a close, I thought it would be a good time to check up on my Summer To Do List and see what else we'll be trying to complete in the next couple of weeks.

1. Make Homemade Ice Cream--Yum! Yum! We made some 4th of July!
2. Make Homemade Kid's Ice Cream-- Haven't tried this yet. Maybe at Grandma's.
3. Go to the Fair--Hot night, but fun.
4. Move into our first house-- In the first week of June, still slowing down to enjoy it.
5. Kids' Swimming Lessons--First part of June. Kids loved it.
6. Camp at the Coast--Didn't make it this year, but camped with in-laws and church.
7. Go to the Oregon Kite Festival--Had a great time. Kids loved the beach.
8. Camp in the backyard--Haven't yet, but maybe after Big Boy goes back to school
9. Try to grow tomatoes, strawberries and lettuce-- Well, kids killed the lettuce, I killed the tomatoes. But the strawberries look good.
10. Pick and freeze cherries--Didn't make it home.
11. Pick, can, and freeze blackberries--Doing that next week.
12. Pick, can, and freeze apples--Maybe next week, maybe too early.
13. Do lots of fingerpainiting--Oh, we've had a lot of fun with this.
14. Make Homemade Popsicles--Yum! Yum! The kids love them.
15. Attend Storytime Bi-weekly-- Yeah, right. Like that was ever going to happen.
