One Month Left

No, not of my pregnancy, but one month of SUMMER left! It is bitter sweet. We are sad so much of our summer has passed, but are also glad to have still another month to enjoy the extra free time as a family. Our Summer Wish List has a few more items left undone. August should take care of that! We leave sometime in the next 7 days for a trip to Kentucky to visit and help my sister with the arrival of their newest little baby. We also want to take our boys camping at a nearby campground. Eric and Joel both requested to go fishing as well, so I hope we can accomplish camping and fishing in the same trip. A few requirements of camping this time: 1) It must be in a tent, 2) It cannot be in the back yard!, and 3) SMORES over a real campfire are required. I think we can accomplish that. Just don't ask me to clean or cook any fish we may catch! As long as we can bring an air mattress, I think it will be a good time. No TV, no video games, no house work or regular chores, just good "clean" outdoor fun! If anyone has good campfire meals, pass 'em on! This will be the first time we will have taken the boys camping "for real".
With summer coming to an end, I hope you can find the time to fit in those activities you reserved for your summer. There's no time like the present!
