Summer Bucket List

This summer, Papa is going to be home for two months. He works for the school district (for those who didn't know) and he got a new job that doesn't require him to work through the summer. They did, recently, inform us that his team may have to work on some projects in the summer months. Still, overall, he should be off in just a week or two.

We have a pretty ridiculous list of things we want to do this summer. Here it is:

1. Go to the zoo... a lot. We're members there, and with two adults home all the time, there's no excuse.

2. Go to a "members only" cocktail party at the zoo. Grown ups only.

3. Have my mom and sister visit for a week, and finally meet our niece who was born about a month before the Cub.

4. Visit Papa's family in Winter Park for a week, and finally meet our other niece who was born a few days after the Cub.

5. Take the kids to the Denver Museum of Nature and Science again. We're members there, too.

6. Have the girls take swimming lessons.

7. Take everyone swimming several times.

8. Make it to Minnesota to visit more of Papa's family.

9. Go camping.

10. Go to the lake... hopefully a bunch.

11. Get some professional family photos, once the Cub can sit up on his own.

12. Finally do that negative space atlas painting on the dining room wall that I've been planning for months.

13. Finish building the loft for the kids' playroom, once the baby robins move out. (more about that this weekend.)

14. Teach the kids more about money, time and the calendar.

15. Relax... somewhere in there.
