My Giant CRAPPY Idea.

This was an equation I thought for sure I would have gotten right. Boy was I wrong.

We decided to go to the Arts Festival today. I thought it would be fun to listen to the music and stroll round the different vendor booths. We left after I was done with school and headed down.
It was NOT the fun time I had hoped it would be. We were meet with near 100 degree temperatures (the hottest day we've had yet.) The boys whined the whole time about being hot, having the sun shine on them, being hungry, not liking what they saw, having to drink water rather than Powerade, etc. I wish I had the camera to document the "fun" time we were having.
Brian and I liked it and I think we will return again.
Maybe our next outing will be a fun time. Maybe I shouldn't plan it. Better luck next time I guess.

School's Out for Summer!

Brianna and Thomas are done with school for the year. I haven't seen Bree for longer than 5 minutes since the final bell rang on Thursday. Tom is really excited for summer. He told me that he was excited because, "I don't have to do math, or...learn things."
Well I just can't have that so we will be joining the local library's summer reading program and I'll have to find him some math things to do.
Charlie is not excited it's summer for two reasons.
1. He doesn't get to rule the house all day.
2. He is closer to beginning school. He told Brian the other day that he didn't want to go because the only letter he can write is a "w." I told him that we could practice some other letters and maybe learn to spell his name. I think he is nervous that he won't be the best at something--he usually doesn't have a hard time with new things unless he won't be the coolest.
My school however is not out yet. I have one more day. I'm excited to have a break, but thought it would be a good idea to teach summer school...someone should have clued me into that.
We'll see how summer goes...day one, so far so good!

Hello?

We are alive and we love you.
Life is so crazy, but starting to slow down. School is coming to a close and we are going to be having a slower routine.
I promise that I will document our summer adventures...who knows...you might get sick of us.
