Summer is in full swing and we are having a blast. Between our times at the pool or the river and the ever present BBQ’s, we have been constantly on the go for the last week. I made the decision to see that we spent as much time out of the house this summer as possible and I am keeping that promise. Last summer was rather boring for all of us and we really don’t want a repeat of the same. I know that the kids are having lots of fun and even when we are home, they are outside having fun. The neighbors have a pool and the neighborhood kids are pretty much camped out there.
The mother of those children says she doesn’t mind and the rest of us go spend an hour or two helping referee the kids as well as helping with snacks and such so she doesn’t have to bear the brunt of the cost. I know how it is to have the neighbor kids at my house to hang out. They will eat you out of house and home in just a couple of days..lol
