Last time getting off the bus for two and a half months! |
To say the kids’ last summer was LAME is a huge understatement. In a matter of months, we decided to finish fixing up our house, list it, sell it, move, and unpack. Sure, there were a couple of trips to Holiday World to tie them over but those were the highlights between long days that were full of hard work. So, I’m probably looking forward to summer with them almost as much, if not more than the kids! Here are some of the things I’d love to be able to do this summer. Is there anything I’m missing from my list??
