Last night we enjoyed a free skate night at the local roller skating rink as an end-of-the-year party for our elementary school. Jeff was able to go, but I almost didn't because I felt so wiped out by my allergies. I pulled myself together and we all went out for a fun family outing! We skated (except for me and Eli), ate pizza, drank root beer, listened to music, danced in our seats, took pictures, and deposited quarters into those little machines that eject rubber balls and other treasures that kids like. Ahhh! What a fun, fun family activity! :)
Speaking of fun, the children and I made a list of things to do and places to go during summer break. School's not out quite yet, but we want to be prepared, right? Do you want to see our list? Do ya? Do ya? Maybe you need some ideas? I hope I have the energy to do these things...Okay, here they are, in no particular order.
