Uniquely Erin Nicole: summer

Alright, so I’ve been thinking.

When I say that to Brent I usually get an eye roll. And in his defense when I do say it to him it typically means I’ve come up with some kind of a project that will take a while.

Ok back to the topic at hand, I’ve been thinking . . .

I’m not the only mom in the world who is home with her kids over the summer. I personally have been trying to think of fun ideas or activities to do with my children while we are all home together.

For the most part, I’ve been trying to find things to do that cost little to nothing.

I also like the idea of trying to use things we already have at home or using our imaginations to ‘go places’ without physically traveling.

When we were home for spring break we traveled to the beach and to the moon.

I guess in a long drawn out way, the point that I'm trying to make is, I am going to create a list of summer activities that I want to accomplish with my children this summer.

Some of these activities we have already done and some are things that I would like to do.

I will list the activities in this post and as we accomplish them I’ll create a link back to the list. I would love for my readers to share any ideas that they have tried or would like to try.
