We copied a tradition from this awesome rainbow lovin Mama.

Thought this was prefect as a daily reminder to have some fun this summer!
As a goal for our family to experience special things that only warm, sunny days can provide!
So I took it a step further and decided to make one just for myself....
So here's my Summer to do:
* Get somewhat of a tan * Give myself weekly or every other week pedicures (complete with foot soak and lotion) * Embrace my freckles... and not worry about going in public this way. ( If I have a little tan, I usually don't end up wearing much makeup anyways!)
* Wear more dresses * Don't worry about how I look in a swimsuit ( oh how this is easier said than done!) * Make lots of watermelon lemonade! * Give myself more quiet time with my Lord * Camping date night
* Become much more loosy goosy.... don't worry about my house being perfect. We will spend more time outside anyways. * Don't kill my flowers * Sew more... there's so many projects that I want to try, but need to finally allow myself to do them! And as a side goal to make this possible is to watch less tv.... until Madmen comes on.
I hope that, even if you don't have a planned vacation with your family, that you can take time to do those things that make you feel the best and most happy. Make time for them... it's worth it!
Great list! Don't kill my flowers is always one of my resolutions. Unfortunately I have yet to be able to keep it. I gave up and started buying cacti. :)
