Our Summer Fun List

Last summer was filled with many, many days of "Mum, Im bored". It was not fun. There were quite a few ocassions of when we also couldnt think of anything to do, resulting in even more boredom.

This was not going to happen this year! So, on Friday evening, after school had finished for the Summer, we sat down as a family (that paints such a lovely picture doesnt it? In reality I bribed everyone to sit down with scones, cream & jam! This lasted for about 5 mins, before the Hubby kept trying to put the tv on & the kids kept trying to wander off.) & made a list of all the things we wanted to do this summer. That evening, once the kids were in bed, I sat down & made the list pretty as it was gonna be sitting on the fridge for the next few weeks!!!

So far we've ticked 3 things off the list!!

I've left space for more things to be added should we need to, but the list so far goes something like this:
