{summer begins here tomorrow}

although very few of his friends are attending these last few days of school.....of course, noah insisted. so, i have a few surprises for them when he gets home tomorrow and summer officially starts here at home.......

1) a banner and balloons to greet them (although i am OUT of butcher paper, so will have to come up with something) for that welcome summer banner across the front porch.
2)a summer tub filled with summer goodies (bubbles, chalk, homemade popsicle containers, a new snow cone/slushie machine, cute snow cone holders, multiple snow cone flavors, water guns, silly string, water toys, a slip-n-slide, sunscreen (of course), new swimsuits, pool toys, etc)
3)a little above the ground pool (on order) to be installed AFTER their swim lessons in June.
4) a vintage-y popcorn bowl for our family movie nights.
5)glazed donuts for tomorrow's breakfast complete with one choc milk and one apple juice. **this will be a real treat for n as i had really cut back on the sugar contained in breakfast over the past couple months as he was more distracted at school. he will be HaPpY!
6)fun, summer-y sandwich cookies from the bakery for an after school snack.
7)a special packed-lunch for n's last day of 2nd grade (boo-hoo) complete with a note.
8)a notebook for n and e to work on the official summer to-do list tomorrow night.
9)a hammock
10)new books for #9

Can't wait!!!!
