The Lazy Hazy Days of Summer. . .

Summer is supposed to be a slower paced time when you should be able to stop and smell the roses. . .right???? Not so much for us! Listen to our schedule for this summer:

This weekend, Father's Day weekend(and the first official weekend of summer, by the way) my sister-in-law and her husband will be coming up to celebrate Father's Day, her birthday and my birthday (hers is the 22nd and mine is the 27th).

Then, the following weekend, Pat will leave to go down to Kitty Hawk to work for a week on the 27th--Virginia Power is apparantly having trouble getting someone to work down there and has taken volunteers for a week at a time throughout the summer--rough gig! So, the company has booked his ocean front room at The Hilton in Kitty Hawk through the 5th. Aidan and I will join him on the 2nd and stay through the 5th. Perfect way to spend Independence Day!

Meanwhile, Aidan and I are going to meet some folks at Kings Dominion on the 28th--more details about who this might be at a later time. It should be an exciting day all around!

On the 10th, my mom arrives to join us on our beach trip to Emerald Isle, NC. We leave on the 11th for a glorious week away from home for fun in the sun and surf! Can't wait!!

When we get home from the beach on the 18th, I'll need to do some fast washing of clothes because Pat will leave on the 19th for a second week at Kitty Hawk. Mom also leaves on the 19th. Pat will then get home on the 25th. . .

Meanwhile, Aidan will start at his new all day Preschool on the 20th. I'm so looking forward to that and all that he will learn there!

And then it will be August. . .and the only plans I have for August happen the first weekend when Virginia hosts it's Second Annual tax free weekend and I will go shopping for Fall and Winter clothes for Aidan. . .

Whew!! What a summer!!! So, I thought I would start painting my Foyer in my spare time. Seems reasonable, right? : )

I feel so bad for you husband that he has to work in Kitty Hawk!!! You are going to have a great time. Aidan will love being so close to the beach.
