Today marks the first official day of Summer for me!
Yesterday was my last day of work. It felt wonderful to sleep in this morning. I’ve had breakfast and my much needed coffee and am ready for a day of … relaxation.
The girls and I sat down after breakfast and created a list of things we wanted to do this summer together. The girls created a list and I created one for myself.
Here is what the girls came up with …
