FLIPFLOPS & FIREFLIES

Ladybugs & Lollypops.
Summertime is all about nostalgia,
And swanky little IPOD list is a summer must.

Sometimes it’s all about the beat of the Boom Boom Pow  that keeps the summer fresh no matter what your age is.

We are SO ready for SUN & FUN.  Our neighborhood has added over a dozen more families since last summer.  We are all looking forward to pool and play time. 

I have high hopes for a SUPER SUMMER.  And  we’ve got it all planned out…

DO NOTHING!  ALL DAY…EVERY DAY.

OK, OK.  So that won’t quite happen, or really even cut it for that matter.  So here’s our alternative.   It’ll have to do!

We already have a fun list of kids movies we want to see.  We have 5 or 6 hotspots the kids want to visit on some day trips. 

This is pretty much the same guideline we had last summer.  It was nice to have a little something written down for the kids to look forward to or help spark their interests for the day.  If we want to do something else (POOL), by darn we’ll do it.  We had a great time last year, because they were always able to count on doing something fun.  And sometimes even grabbing 2 videos, closing the blinds and popping popcorn on a Monday (movie) afternoon was just what the doctor ordered after a long weekend.  I think sometimes just looking forward to something makes life a little better.  However SPONTINAETY & GO WITH THE FLOW are also attributes that are a definite must for an exciting, joyful summer.
