Finding ways to occupy our time

Tweet

Summer is in full swing here. Most of the evenings and Saturday mornings consist of the kids sports, either practices or games. The days are in need of activities. Household chores are taken care of each day to keep things manageable, but the kids get bored quite quickly with the routine. Yesterday we slathered on sunscreen and doused ourselves in bug spray before heading out for a visit to a local conservation area. We hiked the trails and enjoyed the view over the lake. Then the youngest two played on the playground before hoping back in the car. Some ice cream on the way home was a good way to cap off the afternoon. I’ve looked into more local area we can explore and we will likely hit a new place each week. That is if the weather cooperates.
