We have finalized our summer list. Tomorrow is the first day that we can start working on crossing things off. September 6th will be the last day to finish anything on the list. We are hoping to accomplish everything but in reality we probably won’t. Still we think it is fun to discuss what to put on the list and then to mark things off. I am planning on updating a couple of times this summer what we get done. So whether you are cheering us on or you enjoy seeing what we don’t actually do here is the list of 150.

I LOVE it! I know I have seen you do at least 2 of those things. I am cheering you and your beautiful family on. This is a great tradition. My husband is so busy during summer (teen stuff- retreats, mission trips, pastor conferences) that if I let it- I can get depressed too easily thinking of all the stuff we can/should be doing- especially all by myself. You help inspire me. 🙂
