Summer Plans 2012

Around our house, it feels like summer is just beginning.  Since we came home from DC midweek, I am not going to start counting summer break until today!  We set many goals for everyone and since I am impatient/a procrastinator and not super motivated....I decided that for the first few weeks of summer, we will have a week dedicated to each kid and helping them achieve their goals.  The rest of the summer will be more structured and we continue with the goals, but we are going to do a big blitz right at first.  So....that means that this week is Zack week!  Zack's goal is to finish his Bear badge for Scouts before summer ends.  He just received his Religious Knot last week and is ready to crank out some good stuff.  This morning we visited the Tracy Aviary to pass something off.  Tonight for FHE we will talk about Zack and why he is awesome and then figure out what we will do everyday to help him get closer to receiving his Bear award.  He also gets to choose two of our meals this week and all family activities/treats, etc.  We will see how this works, but it is fun to give each kid some extra time to feel special.  We will see how this goes...we are off the the library.
