Summer Plans

What plans do you have for your summer? We have a busy summer planned this year, so I think it will pass by way to quickly.

• Summer reading program at the local Library: my Oldest has signed up for 10 chapter books and my Youngest has signed up for 100 picture books! It will be a reading kind of summer.
• Summer activities at the Library: my Oldest is old enough to start doing the teen program this summer at the library, which includes origami and watercolor, a Wii party, Yu-gi-Oh tournament and many more
• Summer Camp: my Oldest and his Daddy always attend a week of Scout camp
• Summer Vacation: the event I am looking forward to the most! We haven't taken a family vacation in 5+ yrs. and this year we are planning on visiting an Aunt and Uncle in the Washington, DC area and all of the interesting sites to see.
• Baseball and T-ball are still ongoing until July
• Gymnastics for my Youngest is 2x a week thru June and July
• Swimming lessons for 2 weeks in July
• Family Learning Time: we plan on taking a subject (dinosaurs, early America, water, solar system), each one we will cover for about 10 days covering facts, visiting museums and monuments, reading, etc.
• Algebra!: My Oldest will be taking a high school permanent record course next year in the 7th grade, so we will be reviewing pre-algebra over the summer, just to keep him from forgetting everything he learned. He likes doing math problems...so no problems
• Scouts: my Oldest still has scout meetings every week. My Oldest needs to finish his Cooking Merit Badge so we will be spending time in the kitchen this summer.
• Enrollment and Back-to-school nights in August.

Whew, I'm tired and June has only just begun!
