Summer Simplicity

School is out and summer is here! I've been collecting some thoughts on summer for a post, but the main thing I'm aiming for is simplicity. No Pinterest or bucket lists here. For some people that may be helpful, but it gives me hives. I had started to collect a short list of some loose go-to ideas, and yesterday I took the girls and George to one of our favorite local parks and on the way there we discussed what THEY would like to do this summer. Their ideas, in their simplicity, were painfully cute to me.

Popsicles

Ice cream

Having a playdate with their friends

Going to our town bakery for muffins

Playground

Pool

I loved it. It was a reminder again to me that we are in a phase of life where we can and should keep it simple, so let's do that! Let's do that as long as we can!
