A few weeks ago Haley and I made a list of all the small things we want to do during our summer. It seems to involve a lot of walking and eating of cold treats, but so far we've done pretty good at incorporating many of them into our summer routine. What's on your every-day-summer-fun list? Here's ours:
First-thing morning garden walks to see what is new/blooming/ripe.
Lunch, dinner, and breakfast alfresco.
Splash park and swimming pool.
Friends over to play in the pool and sprinkler.
Friday morning Haley and Mom Starbuck's dates.
Bake lots of fruit pies.
Mid-morning get-Jake-to-sleep walks.
After-dinner watch-the-stars-come-out walks.
Family hikes and camping.
Farmer's market (lots and lots).
Friends over to BBQ and make s'mores.
Bike rides to "downtown park" on Sundays.
Make popsicles: apple, cherry, orange, strawberry, raspberry, watermelon
Homemade ice cream.
Watch cloud shapes.
Be a Running Family.
Ride on scooter.
Create sidewalk art.
Fly kites.
