Wow - it just amazes me that summertime flies by so quickly. My summer break is half-gone and my head is spinning wondering where the time is going. I am thoroughly enjoying it, though. I was talking to my mom, who has just retired in the last week (Yay, Mom!) and she was saying that she spent a day last week just basically being lazy and not doing much, to which I responded - that is exactly how I enjoy spending most of my summer days away from work. I always have a list of things in my head that I want to do once I'm free for the summer, like steam-cleaning the carpet in my basement, which has years-old, bubble-solution induced stains thanks to the now disabled bubble mower Luke used to push around down there while I worked out. (By the way - even at 5, he still loves pushing that thing around even though there have been no bubbles for quite awhile now). Anyhoo - has the carpet been cleaned? Nope. Have I thought about how I should do it every time I've worked out this summer? Yep, but gosh, being lazy and not doing it is so much more enjoyable. :) It hasn't been all laziness, though, we've been having fun doing a few things around here.
Luke throws a great "sports party" - his best selling point - it's free! You can play golf, baseball, football, soccer & if you get tired of that, you can spell your name out of all your equipment.
Fun just hanging out
Swimming as much as the weather allows
Being goofy & shooting water guns with cousins
I just wish it could last a little longer. Maybe then I'd make time to get those darn stains out of my carpet...

Don't give up Kara! We've still got 4 good weeks left before we go back. Live it up and be lazy!!!
I think being lazy is a great use of time! And man, those bubble mowers are sure worth the money. Brady still loves his and now Cooper's already obsessed with it... AND we haven't refilled the bubbles for probably 2 years. :)
