First Weeks of Summer

Our first week of Summer break was kind of chaotic. We were driving Avery to and from camp, and we really didn't have a schedule. I did this on purpose to just have a week off, but it really was Blah. This week we are back on track. We are back to being over scheduled with friends and activities. My kids have been wanting to know how to earn extra money, so hopefully they will take advantage of my new system.

This is Aliza's bucket list for the Summer...

Purple Penguin is a snow cone shack that everyone loves here in Henderson. I don't know if we will make it there five times, but we can try.

I had the girls fill out a questionnaire about school the day after it ended. Here were a few of their answers:
