June 1: Swim Lessons for these two...
June 2: Field Day at Troy Hofer
June 3: When Sadie was in Kindergarten, we started a new tradition for the last day of school--we make hotdogs and s'mores over our firepit and create our summer bucket list. Each person in our family gets to chose 3 things to do and we try our best to get through them by the end of summer. I made this reusable bucket list sign and painted lots of extra yellow clothespins. After we complete and activity we flip the clothespin backwards.
June 5: Celebrating Summer with Free Donut Day in our PJ's!
June 6: Pizza Picnic
June 11: So I waited all day to get my free iced coffee... I picked it up before Kinnick's baseball game and planned to take it with me. I set it on the kitchen counter while we were getting ready for the game and a few minutes later, this is what I found...
