Every year I’m reminded how important it is to enjoy the summer months during our harsh winters. Unless the weather doesn’t cooperate, we get outside every day. It might be going to the park, or even a big vacation. But it the fun that we have in our own backyard that we enjoy most often.
It is amazing the fun you can have outside, right at home. Some of the activities we’ve enjoyed just this month include setting up a tent. We would have loved to camp overnight, but the weather wouldn’t cooperate. That didn’t stop us from having a ton of fun reading inside the tent under the stars.
We’ve had several picnics in our backyard. Watermelon just seems to taste better outside on a blanket.
We let the kids be silly. Table manners while eating on the ground go out the window. But that is ok because these are special memories in the making.
Warren had his first chance to roast marshmallows by himself, under direct supervision. This summer rite of passage was a big deal for him. He learned how not to roast them quickly and soon was browning his own tasty marshmallows.
The boys have played in trees, blown and chased bubbles, and created artwork together with sidewalk chalk. I even learned that my kids are better at tag than I am. It is these small, everyday family moments that I will remember about this summer.
And it is the small decisions that I make for my family every day that make me proud to be their mom. Even the decisions that seem ordinary and trivial to some, like what kind of dishwasher detergent to use.
Finish® Quantum® dishwasher detergent and Finish® Jet-Dry® as part of the Finish Power & Free line provide residue protection versus detergent alone so that nothing is left behind. Because it is less harsh, it can be used with baby products yet still offer superior cleaning power.
I like this peace of mind so I can spend more time doing the important things. I encourage you to get outside and make some special summer memories with your kids!

we would go camping
By taking a trip to the beach!
The kids and I like to pack up and just go out to the backyard and sleep in the tent for the night, make some smores and just have fun together
If we won this I think we would rent a cabin in the mountains and go on some hiking adventures.
We would use the money for a beach trip! Last year baby was too little to care but this year she would really love it
We are doing a family camp out
We would go to Frankenmuth Mi, a small bavarian town with a HUGE Christmas store and the best family style chicken dinners anywhere. My kids love the old fashion candy stores and the covered wooden bridge. They have a paddle boat ride down the river. It would be a great day!
A trip to Wisconsin Dells!
We would take the kids canoeing along the river that runs through town. We have a large family so $100 would cover the cost of renting a couple canoes for the day!
We would have a bbq and pool party.
We would go camping.
We’d like to go to the beach!
