Girls excited for summer to start

I, for one, am SO EXCITED that summer is here. (As long as I try not to think about the fact that it means my kids are one year older.). I just love that the summer is OURS. No one bossing around our schedule.

But I know summer can be a little intimidating for moms with houses filled up with kids. Trying to keep them occupied and productive amidst the fun. So I’m linking in some summer organization (or lack thereof!)/goal posts that I came across as I am trying to contemplate the summer stretching out before us here.

  1. I love your summer goal's post. I look forward to it, and since we get out of school a month later here in Canada, I get all your idea;s and then use them, with my own kids, I love that you take pics of them, and post, so I can see 😉

    I am in the middle of cutting for stone!! 🙂

  2. Where do you guys order your reunion shirts? Also from a big family where the person in charge moves down by sibling and its my turn.

  3. Hooray is right! I LOVE summer! It's looks like Switzerland here this week. This post is full of such great stuff! Thanks for sharing! Love you too!
