By | 11:46 AM Leave a Comment
Seeing as how our "formal" school is back in session starting tomorrow I thought I needed to give an update on our Summer of fun list that we started back in June. Here goes:



  • Go to a baseball game.
  • Roast smore's.
  • Have a lemonade stand.
  • Make an outside obstacle course.
  • Go to the beach.
  • Make a movie.
  • Go camping.
  • Make a tool box.
  • Throw a block party.
  • Tie-dye.
  • Read 100+ books (Ella's goal)
  • Keep a summer journal.
  • Map our neighborhood.
  • See fireworks.
  • Make homemade ice-cream.
  • Learn the alphabet in sign-language.
  • Fly a kite.
  • Catch lightning bugs.
  • Make up "God loves you" bags for the homeless and give them out.
  • Get sno-cones at Pelican's sno-balls.
  • See a movie at a theatre.
  • Go hiking.
  • Make orange juice.
  • Go to an amusement park.
  • Pick blueberries.
  • Plant flowers.
  • Camp out.
  • Make homemade bread.
  • Go to a local VBS.
  • Ride a slip-and-slide.
  • Write 10 letters to friends and family.
  • Play with sparklers.
  • Ride a slip-and-slide.
  • Do a sewing project.


  • The type A perfectionist in me is all tied up in knots that not everything is crossed off.  But when I look back through all the pictures I took of this summer I realize that we really did have a summer filled with fun.

    Filled.
    Overflowing, even?

    And I'm good with that.
