It's Summer!

It's summer vacation here! Today was the last day of school. This year went by fast and my daughter is now a 1st grader. It's hard to believe. She had such a fantastic year. Now she has decided she wants to learn cursive. I showed her how to write her name in cursive and now she is a pro at it. She can copy just about any thing I write in cursive. She is already better at it than my middle schooler.

Tomorrow we will have our annual Monkees Marathon! We love kicking off our summer by watching the old Monkees TV show on DVD. I can't wait.

It's time to make the summer chore chart. You know the kids are excited about that.

There isn't much time off before the summer activities really begin. Lots of scout camps and such.

I haven't done any weaving in about 3 weeks. So, I'm starting that again. I need a project. Anyone have a project idea? I'm thinking of weaving some shaws or wraps to take to church. It's often cold and while I like the cool rooms, some poor ladies shiver their way through church. I thought it would be fun to make some wraps and whenever one of the ladies gets cold, she can grab a shaw and keep warm. I just need to decide on what threads I want to use for that project.

There has been so much going on to blog about - funny little things the kids are up too, but I can't think of any right now. Oh well.

One thing I'm really going to have to work on this summer is keeping up with the really good exercise program I've started. It could be so easy to get out of the habit.

That's the sucky thing about exercise. It feels great after you do it, yet it's so hard to get out of the habit. I've just started gyming again since school has been hard and I love the way it feels, but I literally have to drag my butt to the gym every day.
