Summer Fun- Part 1

The past couple of summers I have made a summer fun list of things for me to do with the kiddos and this summer is no exception. This summer's list might be a bit more extensive/ different than summers before though because aiden had very strong opinions about what all he wanted to put on the list and before we knew it we were at 43 desired things for summer fun! So I rounded up and made a list of 50 things for us to try and have fun with over the summer. 
I wish this picture was better but I actually forgot to take it and then snapped it really quick. As you can see, the summer fun list was only filled in to #43 at the start of the summer. These are the things we knew we wanted to do, but I left open spaces for the fun things that come up (as they always do). Aiden & I went to target and he got to pick out smiley face stickers and every time we complete a fun thing off of our list, he puts the sticker up. (This actually seems to be just as much part of then fun as the activity is to him). 

So Since there are 50 activities- I'm gonna blog them in parts. I don't have the energy to blog 50 fun things at once and I don't think anyone has the time or desire to read a post that massive either. So here's the first 10 summer fun things we got to cross off our list. (and No they are not in order)

#1- Go to the lake

 so far we've gone twice but we have plans to go at least 2 more times before summer is over!

#2- Play at Chuck E. Cheese

#3- Go to a Ranger Game


#4- Play on the sidewinder Falls slide

We've done this a BUNCH this summer.

#5- Eat Outside

We've also done this quite a bit. 

#6-Family Fun night/ Pizza & a movie

 This was Charley's 1st bath with the big kids. Looks like he's having fun right?

#7-Go to Howard Moore Play Pool

 We had a great time and loved that beth & molly joined us but camera + pool + 4 kids =I don't have many pictures of this outing!

#8-Swim Lessons

 

#9- Finger & Foot Painting

 
 


#10-Get Sno- Cones

We've done this more than once also but this was the best time cause we had Grammy with us! 
That's our 1st 10 summer fun things. We are having a lot of fun this summer and trying our best to stay busy and cool. I cherish these times with my babies. Happy Summer!

I love all of these activities and all of these pictures. But, the one in the bath tub is probably going to go down as one of my ALL TIME favorite pictures EVER!!! Love that pic. :-)
