For Me--
1. Read lots of books—to myself, just for fun. I am enjoying this one!
2. Declutter the house from top to bottom—one room at a time. So far, I have finished Eli's room and Anna Grace and Olivia's room. The bad part is that, a week later, it is hard to tell! I have already taken one load of things to donate.
3. Arrange for piano lessons for the fall for Isaac, Bailey and Olivia. I have been working on this!
4. Organize my school stuff for the fall. I have started this.
5. Continue painting the trim in our house—that we never noticed was not already painted when we bought the house. I honestly have no desire to do this! We shall see what happens!
6. Organize my master bedroom closet.
7. Go on a date with Mark. We went out for our anniversary last week, and I am ready to go again!
For the Family--
1. Go to the library every week. So far, we have managed every week!
2. Go swimming twice a week as much as possible. We went twice a week for two weeks in a row. Now that it is 100+ degrees outside, I am making no promises!

3. Make more homemade popsicles with the kids several times—Olivia has been asking me about this one. So far, we made two batches of “Old Fashioned Vanilla” that were yummy. Olivia made a batch of raspberry popsicles that the kids really enjoyed!
Isaac made a batch of vanilla. It was yummy and he was proud!
6. Spend a morning washing the car—with lots of wet kids when we are done!
7. Go geocaching!
8. Go bowling. I think a friend of ours is doing this for a birthday party, so this one should be easy!
9. Go to Daylight Donuts for breakfast! The library conveniently gave out tickets for free donuts and Mark took the children for breakfast. I am trying to stay far away from donuts!
10. Make homemade bubbles.
11. Have a sewing day with the girls.
12. Watch the city fireworks show on the 4th of July.
13. Finish memorizing Psalm 1.
14. Make sidewalk paint.
15. Make banana splits!
16. Go to a drive-in movie theater! We did this last week! It was a lot of fun!
17. Find a creek to splash in.
18. Go stargazing.
19. Have family devotions twice a week-- this one is hard in the summer!
20. Go on a day trip to somewhere new!
I will check back in later to update how we are doing!
