Summer time is always busy in our house. Let me tell you about our wonderful weekend!
Saturday morning I got up at 6:00 am. (this is a love story people!) I got up at 6:00 am to make breakfast for my husband and a couple of his friends. These guys get together on Saturday mornings about once per month, usually they go out, but everyone is watching their pennies right now so I offered to make breakfast for them. I made banana crepes, hashbrowns, veggie frittata, sausage, bacon and juice. They showed up at 7:30, and I set them up in our sunroom while the kids and I ate in our kitchen nook. The guys closed the french doors so they could talk without us listening in. It was such a great morning! I really enjoyed myself (ya'll know that deep down I wish I owned a B&B, so that was SO much fun for me!)
Then at 10:00 am we headed to a water park for some friends of ours kids birthday. We stayed there until 1:30 or 2. Came home and napped... we were all beat!
We watched movies that night and just hung out together at home.
Sunday I had some work to do for an attorney that I do contract work for, but I took a break and we went to Dairy Queen for a little treat. It is fun to work at home at my own pace!
This week Mr. Man has the week off. A friend of ours was struggling to find child care for her 10 and 7 year old so Mr. Man offered to keep them. Today he took them to the movies and then gave them each a dollar to go to the Dollar Store - he challenged them to see who could be the most creative with their $1! The kids had a blast! (Not sure how he'll top that tomorrow!)
Thursday night we have baseball tickets and the Friday I think we might go out of town for our long weekend!
When I look at the calendar for the next 3 weeks there is something every day / night -- mostly for the kids. They are SO busy! Since they can't drive themselves I get to drive them all over, sipping my Starbucks.
I just got an email from the school -- I found it funny. It had a count down clock to the First day of school. There are still 35 days left in summer break!

WOW! They really stay on your case about how soon school starts again! Seems like that makes it feel like a short summer, instead of a long summer. :( Is that counting weekends, too, or just 5 days a week?
only 35 days????
