How Many Days til September?!

Ok, so we are 6 1/2 hours into the first day of summer vacation. Already we have enjoyed:


  1. two potty accidents

  2. 45 minutes of car fighting as we took the "scenic route" to our picnic spot

  3. several dirty looks from the sporting goods store people as the twins tried to scale the miniature model of a blow-up pool slide

  4. four quarters' worth of Chiclets gum

  5. one run-in with Brad's boss (!) at the check-out aisle...complete with all four kids in full-spaz mode and me, holding a HUGE box of sanitary supplies

  6. one naked three-year-old on a bike in the cul-de-sac

  7. $2.75 worth of flavored water from the neighbor's lemonade stand

  8. one summer thunderstorm

  9. six "time-outs"


My husband's quote of the week..."Yeah, I think summer is really going to fly by this year!"



I wish...

I feel ya, sister, and we're still in school until Friday. Tell me again why we get so excited to have them home all summer?

That was just hilarious - poor you and the run in with Brad's boss. I can just picture it.

"Summertime, and the living is easy....
Hush, little mother, don't you cry." Somebody without kids invented summer vacation.

I always loved summer vacation, cause I hated helping with homework. But by about July 4th the fun was over..I couldn't wait for school homework and go to bed early.
