As Fall was dawning, I finally completed the The Summer List, but I'm going to argue that it was still Summer because the children had not yet gone back to school.
It was mid-July when I first mentioned The Summer List to you. I only did one thing on the list during my holidays in July -- I took Little Boy to an outdoor swimming pool -- because I wanted to save a lot of the activities on the list to do as a family while my husband and I both had time off in August.

We did four more activities on the list, and we even went to another outdoor pool -- this one had water slides, and Little Boy loved them! This past Saturday, I completed the list with my Mother. We took Little Boy to a park that my Mom took me to when I was a little girl. It's fun to be able to start doing those kinds of things.
#2 - Go for a walk by the river.
#3 - Get ice cream from The Bus.
It's a Double Decker Bus in the middle of downtown.
He doesn't quite get the concept of eating ice cream out of a cone.
#4 - Take Little Boy to the library for the first time.
#5 - Go to three different parks.
Number One - A beautiful park in the city where we live.
Number Two - A park that's in our neighbourhood.
We go to this park almost every night after supper.
Number Three - The park that my Mom took me to as a little girl.
Did you get everything done on your Summer List this year?
Oh my! The ice cream bus looks fabulous! Did NOT get everything done on my summer list - the main one being - re locate family back to the UK! Phew - think it is going to take a little more time. Not beating myself up about it though.
ReplyDeleteBy the way - LOVE your gorgeous profile picture at the top of your blog!!
ReplyDeleteDid not make a list but by the end of summer felt good about all I had done. Of course, I did get to enjoy time at the park with my daughter and grandson. Best of all on a sunny Monday afternoon we went cruisin' down the river with family and a new friend.
