Hello Summer Manifesto 2012

(A great big thank you to Ali Edwards for this fantabulous idea!)

• Slow down the pace.
• Go to the pool lots.
• Drink lemonade, raspberry iced tea, and iced coffee. 
• Eat lots of (yummy) watermelon. 
• Beach it.
• Ride bikes, take walks.
• Read, Read, then Read some more!
• Scrapbook, Scrapbook, then Scrapbook some more!
• Eat outside as often as possible (Serena loves this).
• Barbecue (well, rather, have hubby barbecue).
• Keep to exercise routine (it's not the time to fall off the wagon).
• Say "yes" more often than not (within reason) to the kids.
• Go on dates with the hubby.
• Get together with friends as much as possible.
• ENJOY.
