Summer is almost here...can you feel it?

As the school years ends (in a week to be precise) I find myself looking at all the things we have planned for the summer thinking man why did we book so many things?  Every spring we do this we start booking our summer thinking it is going to be so great to be so busy.  Enter summer and poof just like that we wish we have more time just to "hang out and relax".  The bright side of this is our girls will be very busy this summer and will make many memories and have loads of fun.  I am looking forward to time in the Hills, time at the lake, and a much needed girls trip to AZ with my school friends topped off with a Katy Perry concert at the end of August.  Summer will fly by like it always does, I'll wish I had gotten more done like I always do, and as the dog days of summer roll in at the end of August, I will start my 7 year at a job that I absolutely love:).   As I reflect I see how truly blessed I am and how incredibly lucky my family and I are.  You see we are healthy, we have what we need,  and we enjoy spending time together...isn't that what it's all about?  The simple things in life often go without appreciation.  Here's to an amazing summer with my best friend and soulmate, my sweet girls, and making new memories.
