Ok, so don’t tell my husband that I’m actually looking forward to camping this year. We attempted to go camping last year and well we intended for it to be perfect. you know. We checked out different camp grounds, found one with a beach and made a reservation. My husband said that camp sites fill up and then we wouldn’t be able to go camping if we did make a reservation. Our weekend came up and rain was in the forecast, it hadn’t started raining yet so we drove down the hour and a half to our campsite and as we were getting closer it started to rain a little. I was hoping that it would stop and it didn’t. We kept going. We got to our camp site put up our tent and it was raining and raining. The tent was wet we were wet, but guess what we had a blast. Summer is about fun and smiles and Popsicles and Yosicles.
What other Summer Activities do we enjoy?
Frisbee throwing in the neighborhood. We’ve been throwing the Frisbee and recruiting friends and neighbors as we find them. We’ve had up to five adults playing at one time with a few kids coming up and giving it a try every now and then. It’s been a big hit
Grilling parties and block parties are a blast. I’m really loving how connected our neighborhood is. It probably has something to do with the fact that a lot of us have kids that are all the same age, which means I have lots of kids to give Popsicle’s to.

Summer cook outs
