Currently: June
Since I kind of leapt back into this blog-thing without looking first, I didn't have a plan past the first post. Duh. As if. So, I thought I might get onboard with this "currently" theme to give you a snapshot of what we've been doing since school let out. So, I thought I'd compare what I've been doing to what the kids have been doing, using the same 5 categories.
Me first:
Traveling
Nowhere yet, but we have a trip to Charleston planned soon.
Grilling
My husband about EXACTLY WHEN HE'S COMING HOME AFTER WORK.
Isn't he a lucky guy?
Exploring
Our own city! We went to the symphony play at Centennial Park last week. This week, we hit up the State Capitol, Bicentennial Mall, farmers' market, Belle Meade Plantation, Shelby Bottoms Park, and the main library downtown.
Planting
The idea of a treehouse for the kids in Mike's and my dad's brains. Really, all we need is some sort of dilapidated structure that Will and Sarah can go out and tinker on so they will
GET OUT OF MY HOUSE.
But not out of the yard, because then littlest brother will follow and I will have to go too.
Playing
In the pool. Errday.
Alright, let's see what the children have been up to, shall we?
I'm sure they've been writing poetry in Spanish and composing sonatas.
Kids
Traveling
Miss FancyPants got to travel to Boston with my parents for a 10th-birthday trip.
The Freedom Trail Pizza Tour alone was enough
to make me seriously consider stowing away in her duffel.
Meanwhile, the boys pretty much just get dragged to the grocery store 4 times a day.
Grilling
Mom about whether she REALLY WATCHED 👀
the super-awesome trick (in the pool, trampoline, creek, Fortnite, etc.) they just did.
And did I film it for their imaginary YouTube channel?
Exploring
Ways to fight violently with siblings without drawing blood and/or parental attention.
Planting
A time-capsule in the backyard so that "somebody can find it in, like,
30 years and dig it up and be rich!"
Playing
Catch at the pool.
