Of course J can use it, too, but he's the one who is frightening me by how hard he swings on our rainbow swing. Time for a new venue, I think. <br /><br />Great list. <br /><br />I am old.

Though there will definitely be a little bit of that going on.<br /><br />This summer (well, the six weeks until our year-round school starts up again) we've got VBS, Myrtle Beach, the boys' 10th birthday at the LEGO store - they wore me down - and hopefully hopefully, a quick 3,000 mile round trip out to see my parents in OK. Not sure how I'm going to fit that in, but I'd love to do it.Carpool Queenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09830399395582428542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-66658178741224558572009-05-22T05:21:54.813-06:002009-05-22T05:21:54.813-06:00I hoping for some daytrips this summer - the girls...I hoping for some daytrips this summer - the girls are fascinated with pandas and I really want to try and get to Memphis to see them before August.

I found you through Joanne at the Simple Wife. I also enjoy a few friends of yours who are doing the revival bible study and am following along. Thank you for being "real" and not sugar coating anything. Who needs that??? We too have done a summer fun things to do list. We are going to try camping in our backyard too! Hope you have a really great summer!adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05172828223081959098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-50231726618251519832009-05-22T05:16:00.152-06:002009-05-22T05:16:00.152-06:00I love this!

I'm reading a book (VERY light fiction) called "Twenty Wishes" that's sort of the same premise. <br />I think lists put our thoughts into a conceivable form. When the dog days of summer are looming large..here that is about late July...it's nice to look at the list and remember something we really wanted to do!<br />P.S. We saw MANY MANY moose near Winter Park last 4th of July.<br />I'm at one kid out of school...one to go. It can't happen fast enough.<br />Jeaniejeanie@mageditor.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11355349960960789706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-89427745719528187202009-05-22T01:45:50.336-06:002009-05-22T01:45:50.336-06:00What a great list!

I would recommend that you plan on buying a mid-line or better (not bottome of line) just because your kids are bigger than mine were. We bought a less expensive and it was great for my kid's age, but they would have grown out of it by the time they wre pre-teens.Trishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12995343913821606086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18299306.post-63876735977800073082009-05-21T23:25:14.394-06:002009-05-21T23:25:14.394-06:00My dreamin' list is entirely consumed by the house...My dreamin' list is entirely consumed by the house we are buying next month.
