I realize that everyone has probably made all of their summer plans, but this is more for my own accountability.
I know that I’ve mentioned it a bunch of times, but we have no travel plans this summer! Since Theo just got off paternity leave, he doesn’t have any other time off. We have a family reunion and a wedding at the end of July, but otherwise we are just staying put. However, I am trying to make sure that our summer is sprinkled with a ton of fun local things. Let’s just call it Vanilla Summer with Rainbow Sprinkles 🙂
This is our little summer command station. We have our monthly calendar, our summer bucket list, our personal goals and then our reading program checklist. Tera also has a chart to help her keep track of spending time with her bunny. She wants to buy a second bunny (and has saved up her money!) but we told her she can’t get a second bunny until she actually spends time with the bunny she currently has.
