Greetings and Salutations Summer!

Every year, as you know, we have made a summer bucket list. You can see last year's here (and links to previous years).We have not had time to do that list yet..though it will be made this week.

That being said, while I was working yesterday, I decided it was time for the TV to be turned off and made a list of 20 questions for the kids to write in their answers to. This was right before they played SWAT team for an hour. Yep.

Reading their answers, as I knew would happen, made me smile.
