The Summer List

Here in Colorado, school is out, pools are open and the sunscreen is being applied. That means one thing. Summer!

Last year was our first summer in Colorado. I was good, but hard. I was new to the area and we were adjusting to Cory's travel schedule. This year, Cory and I wanted to make the most of summer as a family. So in order to be intentional we made a summer list. I have seen many bloggers, like Meg,  do this and have loved the idea.

So here is our list. Some things are already in the work, and some things may get dropped because of money or time, but this is our general game plan.

 

It will be awesome to visualize at the end of summer what we have done. Don't worry, I'll keep you updated as we go along. Now go make one, you won't regret it!

Oregon

We're heading to Oregon in three weeks. I'm super excited to experience Oregon weather, go to the coast, see friends and family. Also, I'm excited for the slight chance that my sister Beth will have her baby early and I can meet my niece! We fly home just a little more than week before her due date. By the way, my sister Beth is pregnant if you didn't know that already.

These pictures are from June when Chloe and I were visiting Beth in Portland.

Beth and Cesar, parents to be.

I love this photo.

...and this one. Chloe was a lot chubbier back in June. Boy, I miss the arms!

Looking at these photos makes me miss little parts of summer. But not the heat. I love the crisp fall weather. Unfortunately, the weather here in Colorado isn't very crisp. It's been in the 80's all week and today it's supposed to be 88 for the high. What? Is this for reals? Enjoy your fall while I try to not melt. I know, I'm being a baby.
