SUMMER FUN!!!

Every summer the kids and I are motivated to do all sorts of things and then we fall into a pattern and do a lot of the same things and feel like we haven't done much over the summer. This summer we did a little something different. We have always sat down together (the kids and I) to make a list of things we think might be fun to do, but thanks to Pinterest (once again), we went a step further.



We placed all our fun items on a poster board with squares next to them so we can check them off as we do them. We've already done quite a few and the kids are having fun checking them off as we go. A few we had already done before making this, but figured we'd just do them again :)

This is hanging in our kitchen so we see it all the time. And we add to it as we think of new things. It's been fun so far.

Below I have a few pictures to share from "The Magical Mind of Billy Shakespeare" that was a free show for young audiences put on by The Illinois Shakespeare Festival and held at Ewing Manor. It was on our list and we all enjoyed it.


They gave us props for parts of the play.

Only Summer stuck around to get a picture with the cast.
