Summer is in Full Swing

I really liked living in Eureka.  Mostly.  Mostly that is, except for summer.  It never really felt like summer there...55 degrees & rainy.  No shorts, no outdoor swimming pools.  I love summer.  I love the sun, freshly manicured yards, swimming, barbecues, and the laid back attitudes that most people adopt for a couple of months.

Summer as so far been pretty crazy.  We've been having a blast at MEGA Sports Camp for the last few weeks, and I'm excited to see how it goes for the rest of the summer.  On Sunday Mornings we've been traveling to Hawaii in KidzRoc; that's been super fun too.  I can't wait to hang with the Next Steppers on Sunday.  But, I have to admit that the best part about this summer has been the spontaneous trips to friends houses to swim, the extra late nights with the girls up, the watermelon, bike rides, and long walks with the kids.   Those are the parts of summer that I will remember long after I'm shivering in the winter months.

So, take some time to do yard work with your spouse, or grab slushies from Sonic and take a drive with the family.  Remember that even though you've got lots to do, there's lots to enjoy, and it begins with your family.
