Summer is here....

We are in our third week of summer vacation and things are going pretty well.  We have been really busy. Some of the highlights of the first two weeks included going to Six Flags Great America, seeing The Avengers and Madagascar 3, Bubba's 6th birthday party at the Oak Brook Aquatic Center, Gooses first swim meet as a Wave, and a camping trip.  Pretty good for just over two weeks.  I'm making the kids do school work everyday as well and they have been pretty agreeable.  I'm using the Summer Bridges workbooks and I really like them.  We are reading several books as a family as well including, Harry Potter and The Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

The dogs are keeping us busy as well. Our little Leah is up to 24 pounds and will be getting her rabies shot soon so we will be able to take her to the dog park with Bear.  The heat has been intense so going to the pool is a must.  Overall, we are enjoying each day!
