Currently in July ...

So, I'm a day late linking up to the oh-so-fabulous Farley over at Oh Boy 4th Grade for her Currently linky.  But I'm OK with that - it's summer, right.  We're allowed to be on our own schedule.

Speaking of the oh-so-fabulous Farley, I wrote to her and asked if I could change up the July Currently template a bit to make more of a Canadian theme ... because yesterday was all about celebrating Canada Day here.

Loving the summer holidays!!!  It's been a LONG year, and this is exactly what I need ... even if it does mean listening to way too many kid shows on TV.

I'm determined to stay organized this summer - I've got a way-too ambitious to-do list on my computer, organized by day, with jobs for all of us (the kiddos are NOT excited about this).  ;)  I'm worried if I don't do something like this, the summer will just slip away on me.  And I do love the satisfaction I get crossing something off the list.

I'm almost ready for the Vegas trip ... just need to do a little more shopping.  Wishing I had lost a little more weight (hate shopping right now), but it is what it is.  I did put exercising on my daily to-do list ... today's activity is some Wii Dance with the girls - figure it might as well be enjoyable and keep the girls entertained.

Yesterday was Canada Day - and we had a lovely day at my parents' cottage with the whole family.  It was a beautiful day for a BBQ and a swim (and a couple of photo opportunities).  Perfect.  We capped off the day with fireworks - it had been raining all night, but they still went ahead with them, and we cuddled in the truck with our bags of popcorn to watch the show.  Perfect.  It was a great way to kick off July, and I have a feeling the rest of the month will be just as ... perfect.  :)

Happy Wednesday!
