Usually it takes us a week of recovery from 9 months of school before we dive into summer break. But with each passing year I realize how fast summer really goes and I don't want to miss out on this time with these kids! Corbin decorated our summer bucket list and we talked about some ideas of what we want to do this year (unfortunately we still have not finished and hung up that poster to remind us of the fun, soooo we better get to that) But the theme for our summer is ADVENTURE! We are hoping that each day we enjoy some kind of an adventure - big or little. Picnics at the park, blowing bubbles, hikes in the mountains, bike rides, making new foods, swimming, and trying new things.
Every day hasn't necessarily been super magical, I still do some nagging to get chores done, and fighting happens :), but overall it has been a pretty awesome first week.
