Summer wish list:

Luke and his friend the butterfly (named Tuck)

It's almost August! Summers are so short up here that I really feel the need to make the most of them before the gray settles in for 7+ months. Things I've accomplished so far:

• Berry picking: strawberries, raspberries, and blue berries. Next is blackberries and apples.
• Made jam... need to do more
• Been to many parks
• Grown veggies: the broccoli is being harvested as fast as we can eat it. The tomatoes and zucchini should be ready soon.
• Watched a Caterpillar turn into a butterfly
• BBQ... many more on the agenda

Need to do:

Aquasox game a few years ago... Luke was so little

• Go camping/make smores/ go tubing: It's on the calendar... Leavenworth in September.
• Go to the fair
• Watch outdoor movies (Top Gun is playing next week at the Redhook brewery. Might need to get a babysitter)
• Spend lots of money at the farmers market
• Go to a local baseball game or preseason football game
• Spend the day (or several) at the beach
