Summer has begun...

3 weeks of school left for me and the Memorial Day weekend festivities have all of us itching for summer fun. Of course, as we joked for the last few months, Jim just started a brandy new job (insert raucous applause here!!) just in time for the summer to begin so our dreams of going to the beach every day with the boys this summer were quickly squashed. I'm thinking next summer will be a bit easier to be out and about in the surf with the boys by myself because currently it is a pretty tough gig without the extra set of hands and eyes, and even then, it's still challenging. Luckily, Riley is attending two weeks of semi-intensive swim classes at the end of June so I hope this raises his (and ours)confidence in the water a bit. Griffin, on the other hand, is a total water baby and seems to already believe he is Aquaman, which is on one hand awesome and on the other, absolutely terrifying. Aside from the beach, we are hoping to hit up Great Adventure as much as possible plus try to complete all of our summer fun "bucket list"- this is a list Riley and I are working on, hee hee.
