What a fun idea to make a list like that! I think that I will make one of those with Michael and Wesley too and post it on my blog! We always talk about what we want to do, but then life gets busy and we never do it! We have to take advantage of the warm weather since we don't get it for to long in these parts:) You should post it in your side bar!!

Hey! Thanks for the comment on my blog!! :) I luv your list of things to do this summer! We'll definitely have to make 1 of those lists too...otherwise I seem to get a good idea, but then kinda forget about it and end up not doing it. :) But I think it's SO important to do stuff together as a family...fun stuff like all your ideas!! :)
