Summer Time on the FARM

Hello ...... What a long time since I have blogged but no excuses and let me get right back at it as I have missed it oh so much . First of all ITS SUMMER TIME. I have been waiting oh too long for this as last year I was robbed of half of my summer but a wonderful gift of my gorgeous little man was the treasure in the end.
How are the Jones spending the summer. well we headed out to Calgary to pick Dman home spend a few days near Canmore at a wonderful campsite. Besides some crappy weather and a few other minor issues   It was nice to just get away.
Now that we are at home and back to the grind of things this is how we have been rolling . Literacy class Wednesdays  . We have been carrying out a wonderful schedule to keep our weekdays busy by using this little weekly guide I adapted from somewhere in blog land not remembering right at this moment but if I figure it out will share .
MONDAYS -Make something  Monday
TUESDAYS - Time to read Tuesday
WEDNESDAY - What's cooking Wednesday
THURSDAY -BE thoughtful Thursday
FRIDAY - Somewhere fun Friday
This has been keeping the kids plenty busy by asking mom what's tomorrow for . We also have been doing the SMASH journals on our own schedules as we do not get the early summer holidays like in the U.S. so we have been going along with Tami a couple a day here or whatever suits our fancy because we can. She has great guides and I highly recommend this kids summer journal I am also doing one but have picked my up at Target its the black journal .
I am preparing for Little Mans big 1 birthday and Dman's 9th birthday that is fast approaching .Sniff ... sniff.. We hosted a Canada Day BBQ at our house this year . Between Swimming lessons and life I am sure we can manage to fill up the rest of those days quite fast.
Leave you with a picture of us at Banff .

I will make sure to make a camping in Alberta update soon too.
