I left a few spaces blank so that we can add more activities as we dream them up. I've already thought of five more since I snapped the photo above. Maybe we'll get to all of these, and maybe we won't, but we'll never be bored!
What do you have planned this Summer? Care to share? Maybe we can add some of your ideas to our list! (Especially if you are local.)
I love all your ideas, Philip and I are working on our list as well and we are quite laid back like you about if it happens great if not fine too. I think sometimes you need to have a plan or you end up doing nothing.
ReplyDeleteI have a couple of those same ideas on my list ;) If there are any of those major day trip outings you care to collaborate with the Bradley folks let us know!
ReplyDeleteTraveling is top on our list but my low maintenance schedule is what I am shooting for. Mostly lots of pool time but I should scribble some rainy day or way too hot to play outside activities.
Personally, I would like to complete this book to begin with...Playborhood by Mike Lanza. http://playborhood.com/
Unless you meant other friends in NOVA...I am ReAdY for a slumber party...Wootwoot!!!!!!!
