Here is our list for this summer. We have already started, and it's ever changing to fit our family and time schedules. All the activities we have done so far have worked out to some sort of fun though. Like yesterday, we set out to ride the WES train, but I forgot that it only runs in the morning and afternoon, so instead we went to a new library that we'd never been to (in Wilsonville). It turned out that we could sign up for their summer reading program and they were having their story and science hour soon so we stayed around for that. The kids had SO much fun. We will have a hard time going back to our library's story time after that. Anyway, that's what this list is all about, discovering new things and places and enjoying summer. What are we going to do today? We go to our summer fun poster (pictured above) and take a strip from one of the ice cream cones. Here's the list!
