I Wear My Sunglasses at Night....

Only if they are new and "Summer of Fun" approved.  That's right, we needed new sunglasses to help on our many adventures.  We were so excited to get them we had to put them on once we got home!  


We then spent awhile enjoying the beautiful evening.  We have been working so hard on our back yard, it's nice to have time to finally enjoy it!  


Lola, like always, loves spending time outside.  Her Frisbee is the favorite outside toy! 


 All this after having dinner with some friends, a perfect evening!  


This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it. Psalm 118:24

Let the fun begin!

For the past 2.5 years my wonderful husband has been working to add to his education, and complete his Master’s degree.  I’m so proud, but it’s been hard work and long hours for him.  Since he graduated last weekend, we have deemed this to be our “Summer of Fun!”   This blog will keep you up to date on our adventure, and we hope you will give us more ideas! 

So, before we give you the list of fun you need to meet the adventurers…
Ryan and I have been married for almost a year and a half.  We are truly best friends.  Ryan loves to golf and competes in long drive competitions.  Katelynn enjoys crafts and planning weddings. 
 After Ryan's Graduation, May 2012


We will also have many fun times with our “furry baby.”  Lola B. is our 4 year-old toy poodle.  Her favorite hobby is playing in the yard with her Frisbee. 

Now, our list of fun.  These aren’t in any order.  
  • Picnic in the park
  • Go fishing
  • Zoo trip
  • Have a water fight
  • Make popsicles/ice cream (sugar free of course)
  • Myriad Gardens
  • Play with sidewalk chalk
  • Go to a drive-in movie 
  • Make a fort in our living room for movie night
  • Go hiking
  • Go to a farmer's market
  • Fly kites
  • Game night 
  • Mini golf (even though Katelynn always loses)
  • Ryan will teach Katelynn how to play golf (this in itself could take all summer)
  • Do a service project...we're taking suggestion for what this should be! 
  • Road trip!  
  • Take Lola to the dog park!
  • Have pajama dance party...yes this was Katelynn's idea
Please leave us ideas of what else we should add to the list, or if you have suggestion for any of our activities.
