Each year I feel like we get a little bit jipped as far as summer vacation goes. Year round school has it benefits, or so they say. I personally don't believe it because it doesn't work well for my kids and it is hard being off track at weird times and not getting a "real" summer vacation from school. This year, we got out of school on July 1st and we go back to school on July 26th. My kiddos get 3 weeks for their vacation. So we have tried to cram a bit of fun into a very short amount of time.
Here are some of the things we managed to do:
 |
| 7-11 Free slurpee day! Only by the time we got there, we had to pay.... |
 |
| donuts for grades at Krispy Kreme! We came home with 17 donuts! Yay for good grades, kids! |
 |
| we did some craftin'... |
 |
| even the big girls had fun! |
 |
| slept out on the trampoline! |
 |
| jumped on the tramp with the sprinkler! |
 |
| went camping with gramma and grampa and all the rest of the Cole family! |
 |
| Glitter toes for the girls! |
 |
| Ute Stampede parade in Nephi, Utah |
 |
| we saw Cars 2! |
 |
| and Thor! |
 |
| we watched old episodes of the Smurfs |
we also had water fights, made paper dolls, baked banana bread, read books, and played with friends!
What a fun 3 weeks!!

You are an AWESOME mom, that is a whole lotta fun to pack into 3 weeks!!!
You totally put me to shame, and I had nearly two months. I hang my head and bow to the master of time management and mothering. :)
