Summer Plans

Today is our first day of Summer Vacation!  We went to the library and the playground and had a nice lunch as a family at Pasquale's.  (Italian husband will only eat their sauce)

We are in the thick of baseball season over here.  Games 3 days a week!  But I love watching them and cheering them on - I get to be a cheerleader again.

So what are our plans for Summer?  I have some lofty goals to have my soon-to-be 1st grader read a book every single day.  Reading is so important and good readers have an easy time in school.  We got our library cards ready because I would love to start reading again. The only reading I do now is charts at work and US weekly once a week.  I got our Kindergartner a book to work on writing letters.  And our oldest needs to keep up on those multiplication and division facts.

As far as where are we going? We have our July 4th picnic with Steve's family, Queen of Heaven carnival, Darien Lake, Great Wolf Lodge, Jellystone camping trip and of course the Fair planned.  And when that is all over Steve and I are getting away!  We need to make ourselves go because we hate inconveniencing family - 3 boys is a lot to handle.  We can't decide if we want to do Maine, Boston, Chicago or scope out Myrtle Beach in case we want to take the family in the future. I just want to lay by a pool and drink!
