Oh, what do you do in the summertime...

Oh, what do you do in the summertime when all the leaves are green. One month down and only 2 to go, today like everyday we are trying to fill the time until school starts. The kids have there chores to do everyday but when that's done its always "mom I'm bored whats there to do". I of course being the mom I say "there is always work to be done" and then the kids say "I'm not that bored".

We have actually been very busy this summer. The kids have the pool in the back yard to play in and if that's to dull they can walk the 2 blocks to the public pool and play with there Friend there. They also like to go to the park by the pool and enjoy the free lunch the state provides for kids who's parents work (I know sounds what it sounds like but why not let my kids go I pay my taxes just like everyone else besides they get to see there school Friends and play at the park for a little while and I get some peace). The kids and I have also been spending alot of time in my garden, the radishes are ready and the tomatoes and peas are almost ready, we cant wait.

But today will be different one of Kaitlyn's Friend was in the hospital last week with a burst appendix and is not allowed to do anything more strenuous then walking so they will be going to entertain this poor little girl for an hour or two while I clean my messy house (that's one thing that never stays done with the kids home)

I really do like summertime and having the kids home. We get to sleep as long as we want and cuddle up in front of the TV and watch Mythbusters all day. (If only I could keep my house clean it would be perfect).
