high five for Summer

I started the list here and then updated it here. Summer is still letting its presence be know here in Louisiana, but I actually start back working Thursday after next and only about two weeks total left of summer break before school starts back up in full force. So, I thought it was a good time to update the list. *things we've done since last update...

Summer To Do List:

Go swimming

Go to the park

Eat ice cream

Build a pillow (and blanket) fort

Visit family

Go to Yaya and Grumpy's *

We visited Mom's over the fourth- I talked about it here.

Paint with pudding

Bake cookies

Read LOTS of books *

We are part of a Summer Book exchange- you basically buy one book and end up getting 20+ in return. You follow directions from a printout. I'll explain later, but we've received about 6 so far and it has been so fun to check the mail everyday! Beckham also got some awesome books for his birthday!

Go for walks

Lay in the grass *

Play in sprinklers

Eat sno-cones

Go to the lake *

Mom lives on the lake, so check that one off! But, I'm sure we'll go back before Summer is over.

Take lots of pictures *

Umm, yeah! check, check, and check!

Put those pictures into an album

Play in the mud

Eat s'mores

Build a fire*

Prior to the party we worked really hard cleaning up the yard- including burning some leaves, this wasn't exactly the kind of fire I was planning but it's too dang hot to sit around a fire and eat smores so I'm marking that one off! Much more of a winter activity!

Watch the sunset

Stay up late

Wake up early

Go to a Gymboree class

Go shopping *

See a baseball game

Go fishing

Write with sidewalk chalk

Finger paint

Eat Popsicles *

Take a trip *

Ride in a boat

Have 1 year old pictures made
