summer activity ideas for kids…

i am writing this as our family is en route from vegas to boston. husband let me have his first class seat and he is sitting with all four kiddos in coach – sigh. he is the best! so, with laptop out – i am switching from travel/vacation mode to serious-momma’s-got-a-lot to do mode! our kids will be out of school in a couple of weeks and i must finalize our summer plans.

today at boston mama’s i am discussing 8 summer activity ideas for kids – check it out here. {please share other ideas you have at Boston Mama’s – i’d love to hear your advice!} Are you ready for summer? kids or no kids, summer is a season of rejuvenation – a great time to motivate yourself to do things you maybe skipped in the colder months.

there are also a few extra fun things i am preparing for…

first, if you went to the utah bloggers meet’n greet in february — we are planning the next event! Mark Tuesday, June 26th on your calendars – for a fun evening at Soel Boutique in Provo, Utah. If you were a blog sponsor in february and you are interested in being a sponsor again – or, if you missed the event in february and would like to be a sponsor this time or participate hands-on, please send me an email jane@prolook.com – we are accepting sponsors + looking for an ambitious, positive team to help with the next event!

second, we are moving! {deja-vu, right?} the home we’ve been renting for almost a year in boston, has been for sale while we have been occupying it. well, it sold a couple of weeks ago – and we are set to move the end of June/early July. perfect timing with the kids being out of school.  between husbands work/travel schedule, my moms visit, and our unexpected trip to nevada we squeezed in house-searching and by the end of this week we should know if we will be set on a new home. we will remain in the same suburb we are living in, and we’ll still have space for guests! most people would be dreading to move a family of six again, but i’m actually excited about the move. if we get the home we are hoping for – we will have A/C + a garage for the next phase of this adventure. woo*hoo! plus, i thrive on having a new canvas to decorate.  my mind is already making plans for the new space.

third, i have some fun party-posts coming up in the next couple of weeks. i’ll be sharing ideas about how to plan fun-affordable details for a birthday party + barbecue, hopefully something you can implement this summer!

that’s all for now – come back soon – i’ll have more to share! xo.
