Summer, Summer, Summertime

Given my love of lists, lists, lists, it should be no surprise to see another on this website. This time, however, I got Amelia involved in the planning. We sat down one night as a family and came up with 20 things we would like to do this summer. I copied our list to some leftover poster board. Then, Amelia and I looked through some magazines to try and find some pictures of the activities we are hoping to do.

Summer Fun:

1. Go up in the Arch.
2. Attend family reunion in TX.
3. Go fishing
4. Take a trip to the Lake of the Ozarks
5. Swim at the pool
6. Take a family picnic
7. See a movie at the theater
8. Take a nature walk
9. Go to the Incredible Pizza Company
10. Visit the Farmer's Market and pick out a new fruit to try
11. Camp in the Backyard
12. Complete the summer reading program at the library
13. Pick some fruit
14. Check out Purina Farms
15. Catch lightning bugs
16. Go to a parade
17. Take the car through the car wash
18. Make a dress
19. Visit a new state
20. Go to a Cardinals game

The poster is in a spot where we can't help but see it every day. We are 3 weeks in and have checked off 4 things so far.

(We also swam at the pool and took the car through the car wash for part of Amelia's father's day gift to Jason).

Let the summer fun continue (so I can cross it off)!
