Here's what I wanted to share in participation of
sincerely fro me to you -by KristenOK...so we live by a place that looks allot like this and we spend every summer in it, totally!![]()
Today marks the first day of true "summertime fun" for us!
Getting out of the daily routine is good for both kids and mom...so what works for me is an all day out to play, in the water; at the park; fishing; bike riding (whatever you can reasonably do without going in debt.) Taking a picnic lunch while inviting friends who don't need an excuse to get out either!
Yes the gas is high and so will your blood pressure be also if you don't take those cute lil' monkeys rascals out every once in awhile!
Will update this with pix to show how the day went, and I'll even post how much it cost, you may just be surprised!
Having a Great Day in the Lord!
Here it is as promised... pix to tell of a "summer fun filled" day! Enjoy!
Here we are at the best swim spot around!
Meet Sally the "fishing dog" this girl can put her nose in the water and blow bubbles...too funny!
the momma's lounge (aka shady lazy spot)
the great fisherman at it already
T-Bear tags along..
" First time in the river"
"Hammock time"
I'm not sure what she was doing...balancing, maybe?!
a very happy picnic-er, no I did not supply cake only fruit and some sugar-filled drinks a few pieces of candy...all right all right so I wanted a full days run out of them..so later they'd crash, so sue me!
taking leaps and riding zip lines
she's watching Sally "fish"
Sally gets out...lil' girl gets wet...funny!
This was a great start to our summer time fun! And for the past few summers it's been like this...so find some special place...make a date weekly and start a ritual like this!
COST:
A couple gallons of gas and picnic lunch $15.85 a sunburn for mom ouch! as she was only applying sunblock to her babies and forgot herself but every bit worth it for these memories!
Thanks for stopping by...leave a comment and share your fun times too!

Wow! Looks fun! I would like to join in the fun!
That works for me too!
The river so becomes our friend during the summer. We can walk to one of our swimming spots. That makes it an option when we don't want to spend an arm and a leg in gas. Sounds like a fun day to me!!!! :)Heather S.
