Mr. Fixit is looking forward to a few days' vacation next week. And making more jam (he already organized nine jars of strawberry last weekend). And going to Cruise Nights.
Mama Squirrel is sorting out this year's school stuff and thinking through next fall's plans. And picking lettuce...and trying to figure out why Crayons has only one pair of shorts that fit her...and looking forward to trying out some surprise school stuff via the TOS Homeschool Crew.
Last night we had dinner and spent the evening with one of our oldest homeschool-friend families. We've had a tradition, most years, of getting together at the end of school and having a school-end or graduation ceremony (whichever was most appropriate) for all our girls. Last year the timing didn't work out for it, but this year we resurrected the tradition. True to tradition, it was one of the hottest days in June! But it was still a great time, and something to really mark the end of our school year.
Next week we celebrate our wedding anniversary, and Canada Day. Canada Day falls in the middle of the week this year, which really confuses people who somehow expect that the first of July should somehow coincide with a weekend, because don't we always get a long weekend for Canada Day? Well, no, not really. But I think a lot of people will kind of create one anyway...especially now that the threatened LCBO strike has been settled. (I mean, you have to do something with all that beer you stocked up on just in case? Not at this Treehouse, but I can imagine quite a few other squirrels will be making the most of it.)
Happy summer!
