This week Carrigan and Merrick wrapped up their school years. Merrick didn't have any choice but to go on Monday because he had two important finals, but C.C. just had a field day and she was determined not to go. Since I'm a pushover, the weather was crappy for a field day, and I had to work and preferred to have some help in keeping Elsie entertained, I caved to her staying home. In any case, we did her last day pictures, along with Merrick's, on Monday.
As for me, I had to work this week, but it was a very slow week. I am now off for the next 8 weeks and we are officially on summer vacay mode.
Last week, we talked as a family about our summer goals and, so far, we are off to a good start. This past week was full of practicing our sports, playing games, reading, working (Merrick), swimming, sewing, Legos, and crafting. While we have had electronics, they have taken a back seat to days filled with other fun.
I know it's very early days, but I'm hoping we can keep this up. We have a very small number of summers (I refuse to say how many) left with Merrick at home and I am determined to make the most of this one.
