This summer, I'm spending most of every day with two boys, W and W. They are old enough that I'm basically just here to make lunch, provide transportation, and break up fights. Frankly, they would be perfectly content to sit around and watch Johnny Test all summer (which is what we've done so far). But I think I should corral them away from the TV and towards other activities at least once a day!
So we've compiled a list of things we want to do this summer! Will we do all of them? Probably not. But it gives us a place to start! :)
