What are you doing this summer?

I get the same question Robby gets. I think I sometimes even get the question with a tonal hint of "You're not just sitting around, being lazy, relaxing while you take the summer off from work are you?" I enjoy my summers, always have. And with the added knowledge of Robby's perspective, I will probably enjoy them even more from now.

So what am I doing this summer?

I'll probably run some errands on my bike, water the flowers, teach my kids, go to family camp, watch the turtles in the ditch, write some blog posts, read for information, eat some pop sickles, read some books, help at Bible School, watch some movies, sit on the porch, analyze my running data and have camp outs in the living room.

Most importantly though, what I'm doing this summer is spending time with my family.

That is awesome that you are going to spend your summer with your family. By choosing to forgo a larger paycheck to be an educator, you deserve this time with your family! I only wish Curt could take summers off, but then again, he did not choose to be an educator, so he must work his summers!

How dare you, sir?
This is appalling.
Don't you know that he who dies with the most hours spent at work wins?

I for one DO plan to be lazy and relax as much as possible! LOL But spending the summer off with the kids is the best - and coming to visit you guys - and going to Montana - and swimming - and I especially enjoy having time to read. We went to the library this morning and stocked up on Goosebumps for Zach, Sharon Creech for Carly and JOhnathan Kellerman for me. I have one more paper to write for my leadership program and then I can really read guilt free.

That's so awsome to have a good summer with the family. I really hated working so much when you were young. PTL you turned out OK in spite of my absence. I guess we made the best of special moments. Bonneyville Mill was a special memory for me as well as going to the Holiday Inn for a fun weekend in the middle of winter to swim.
