Sweet, Sweet Summer! Lord, help me!!!!

It's officially summer!! So far, we have: spent 5 hours at our local waterpark/theme park, numerous hours at the pool, attended a cook-out, birthday party, graduation party and an end of season soccer party.  The boys have also slept in a tent set up in the loft, watched too much tv and played too many video games.  Oh, and I can't forget about the Monopoly game we started that will sit in the playroom floor all summer....it's an ongoing game. If you have never played Monopoly with your children, I suggest you start a game....and fast! Not only is it an excellent way to practice math and communication skills, but it's also an opportunity for you to witness the ruthless, conniving business mogul side of your children you didn't know existed....ummm, it can be eerily entertaining and downright scary! Oh, I forgot to mention...it's only our 5th full day of summer. Yes, we've been busy, having a blast, and I'm exhausted!!! So when one of my guys asked "what are we doing today?" I said..."nothing planned, just chillin'". His reply..."oh, so we're just gonna be bored all day???" "Oh, I'm sorry...I forgot...y'all are gonna be scrubbing bathrooms today!" Happy Summer!!!!
