Summer's Coming!

There are only 7.5 days left of the girls' school year!!!! So over the top excited for this year to end. Not because it was bad, but because it feels so good to have this milestone under our belt---new school for Lily and Shelly on her own at the elementary school. They both did so well and I couldn't be happier with their successes this year. 

But, now, it's time to prepare for a nice long summer break! We will definitely be creating another Summer Fun list. Here's the list from last year:



And here's the list from 2008:



Not sure if I took photos of our lists in 2009 or 2010, but we did make them. I love the idea of the list as a guide, as motivation, and as a reminder of what we accomplished. I have never felt pressure to complete all of the items. I think it's a bit exciting to know we brainstormed so many fun ideas that we couldn't fit them all in to our schedule.

And, here are some other cute Summer list ideas that are out there:

Lots of great ideas and lots to look forward to this summer! Have fun!
