6 PM-- Grill out with the family (hamburgers, hot dogs, salad, corn on the cob)
7 PM-- Watermelon for dessert! Nothing says summer like a juicy, red melon!
8 PM-- Watch a ridiculous episode of WIPEOUT. I love when Ben laughs so hard he can't breathe.
9 PM-- Play an intense game of "Go Dinosaur" with the kids. Winner=Zack
Z: Benny, do you have any pro-to-cer-a-tops?
B: Go Dinosaur.
Z: O, man!

11 PM-- Play cards in bed with the husband. We invented our own strip-style version of Racko :)
MIDNIGHT-- stay up talking about the perfect day, our car troubles, our blessings.
eventually fall asleep........
(Yes. when documenting a PERFECT day, you must always include the menu..)
I'm sure this is just the beginning of PERFECT summer days! Hope your car gets better soon!
ReplyDeleteI missed Wipeout? My kids also laugh so hard at that show.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree about the menus. My mom always posts hers on her blog when they have family parties. It totally makes me homesick.
ReplyDeleteStrip Racko huh? Hmmmm....:) I love that you read your kids long big books. I always resolve to do the same when you mention it. Must. follow. through.
ReplyDeleteWhich book of Fablehaven are you in? I just finished chap 6 of book 2... Natalie (3yrs old) said she wanted me to stop reading "nableheaven" in the car because she was tired... But my kids LOVE it- Chad especially- he begs me to read daily- LOVE THAT!... Michael (10yrs) has read all 4 at least 4 or 5 times each...
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a fun day- I LOVE LOVE LOVE summer! :)
Strip Racko. You crack me up. You KNOW how much I LOVE Summer!!
ReplyDeleteWe tried a version of Strip Memory the other night. You're such an inspiration!! HaHa!! I'm pretty sure I won.
