Summer is almost here!! I can't believe it... To start our blog I thought we'd do a test and simply just write about what you are most looking forward to over this summer.
I am especially looking forward to this summer for many reasons...
#1- I get to spend time with my boys and this summer they are truly big boys. So no feeding/ nap schedule is going to hold us back! I have a long list of things for us to do and most of them include the pool.
#2- On the flip side of #1- I'm going to Mexico with just my husband (NO KIDS) and spending a week at an all inclusive resort! I can't wait!!!!!
#3- And last but not least I have many fun outings planned or hopeful to plan with some special people (friends, coworkers and my trusty pal BL lime).
I'm hoping all of you have a fun and relaxing summer because you all sure do deserve it!! We can all come back in August refreshed and ready to take on another school year doing what we do best!!
I am looking forward to relaxing and hanging out with my family.
ReplyDeleteI am excited to enjoy the pool with Cameron.
I am looking forward to cooking in my new kitchen...
And most of all I am so looking forward to NOT having to set an alarm!!!
I am looking forward to playing with D.C. I can't wait to take him to Six Flags for the first time, sign us up for reading times for toddlers at the library, go swimming, take swimming lessons, etc.. I am especially looking forward to scheduling play dates!!
ReplyDeleteI am super excited to take a 15th Anniversary trip with just my hubby. My son and Pomeranian will be staying with my in-laws. We haven't selected the location yet as Daren just got approved for the time yesterday. Now, I need to get busy planning a mini vacation! YAY!!
I'm looking forward to figuring out how to actually post a comment on this blog! I've tried twice and I can't see it published.
ReplyDeleteYay! Number 1 on my Summer To Do list complete!
ReplyDelete#2 Spend some time doing everyday things at an easy pace: plan meals, grocery shop, cook as a family and eat at a relaxing, "don't-have-to-run-out-the-door-pace". Breathe:)
#3 Spend more time with my parents bc they are great.
#4 Visit some colleges and hopefully help Cadence narrow down the search. (and at the same time spend some quality time with daughter #1)Senior year is around the corner and I want to make every minute count!

I'm looking forward to turning my alarm off for the summer and slowing down the pace. I'm excited to have Emily home after a very successful Freshman year at Mizzou.

This summer is already booked with so many things to do! Brad and I really want to go on several vacations this summer including Colorado, California, and Florida. I also started my masters degree! I take my two nieces every Tuesday to different places around St.Louis for a day of fun. I am also in the middle of a huge landscaping project that I hope to finish before school starts back up.
ReplyDeleteThis summer I am starting my master's program!!! Ahhhh super nervous and excited all at the same time! I plan on doing a lot of house projects that don't seem to get done during the school year and relaxing by the pool! Also there are 2 family weddings to go to. One in June in Columbia, but the other one is in Virginia on August 9th!! It looks like we may drive out and I will return on an airplane since we will begin teacher meetings on that following Monday!! Never a dull moment around here :)
ReplyDeleteThis summer I am stoked to not do any homework. Punts Cana. The lake. And playing with my puppy. So excited to have time off with Tom!
ReplyDeleteThat puppy is adorable .Not that Tom isn't, but I'm just saying, the puppy stands out!!!!!
DeleteBetter late than never! It took me several times to figure this out. Let's see if the 3rd time truly is a charm.
ReplyDeleteI am loving: * the stress free summer
* celebrating two graduations and parties at our house.
* spending time with family
* getting Drew enrolled and signed up to play baseball for
KCKCC (tuition/books paid for-WOOHOO!)
