SPORTS WEEK

We kicked off our first week of summer with a sports theme. Yes, I know some of you think I’m crazy, but we actually had a great week. My friend Christina and I made some crazy summer plans for us and our kids. We planned out themed weeks that include field trips, activities, crafts, pre-school workbook pages, a daily calendar, and much more. The boys love getting up in the morning and putting the new calendar number up and saying the weekly verse. Our plans written out on paper look crazy…and a bit overwhelming, but I have to say that our first week was a success. I didn’t complete everything on our weekly plan, but that wasn’t my intention. It was so nice to already have the ideas down on paper, it was only a matter of deciding what we wanted to do at a certain time. The boys get a little crazy come about 10:30 in the morning when Allie is taking her morning nap, so my folder of fun worksheets and ideas came in very handy to keep them occupied and busy, and I’m not gonna lie I love “playing school” with them in our summer classroom. So I tried to document our week and here are some of the things we did…checked mommy out of work for the summer ☺, went to the park a couple times with friends, roller skated, went swimming with friends, made gold medals, made sports themed cookies, spent a couple evenings with friends at frozen yogurt and music in the park, swam at grandpa and grandma’s house, went to Sun Splash with aunt TT, Luke has soccer, and we ended our week with a big tee-ball game at the park with friends and hotdogs. So our first week was a success, it was relaxing and fun at the same time. We can’t wait for our next 9 weeks of fun activities and plans.our summer classroom and craft/activity closet
