My Project Summer Plans this Week

With my oldest son’s last day of Kindergarten this past week came the sudden sense that Summer is HERE!

I’m excited about that.  How about you?

On my son’s last day of school, we headed to a local Pretzel Shop and pulled out our Project Summer Downloadable Planner.  This was our chance to do a little dreaming about what fun things we’d like to do this summer.  Just a few of the activities that made the list: play on the playground, have campfires, go fishing, learn to swim, read, and play baseball better, and eat ice cream (of course!).

We discussed the fact that just because it made the list doesn’t guarantee that it will happen.  But it’s fun to dream about what summer could bring, isn’t it?

We also chatted about the Chores Chart that we will be using and how we can’t plan on having fun if we don’t plan on working too.  I *think* they are onboard with that.  Time will tell!

So with that said, here are some of our Project Summer goals this week:

  • Begin using our Chore Chart each morning.
  • It’s going to be a beautiful week, so lots of time outside.  We’ll be heading to the playground for sure.
  • This week starts the Regal Family Film Festival.  We are going to try to make it to one of the movies.
  • As for me, I’ve begun running in training for my 5k next month.  I plan on running at least 2 more times this week.
  • I’ll also continue to inspire daily cleaning using the timer method.  It’s what works for me during this busy season of life!
  • I’m guessing we’ll fit some ice cream eating in somewhere too. :)

How about you?  What plans do you have for Project Summer this week?  Be sure to check out my LONG list of free and cheap activities if you need some inspiration!
