I have been working on packing all week and now its here and its not done!
We leave right after church and Hubby isworking on his sermon and NOT PACKING!
and we had a busy day after 2 weeks of busy busy for Hubby.
Two funerals,one of a beloved member/former choir director,
lots of pre-marital counseling and a sticky church thing.
Lots of meeting, nights, days off and it will be so good to get GONE!
Goals for vacation (ironic I know):
1. pedicure
2. movie night with Hubby
3. Perhaps movie with Flash...
4. beach beach pool beach
We'll be there with Hubby's family
and get to see his newly engaged brother so it should be a party!

Summertime Playlist

I've been working in the back of my mind on a summertime playlist
...here's what I'm thinking of:
Summertime by Will Smith
That Summer Song by Kid Rock that came out this year
The Kenny Chesney song that talks about Yoohoo.
(I used to love Yoohoo...haven't had one in years.)
and...oh dear... what else?
If you have an idea let me know.

The playlist that gets the most "play" around here is kid's music.
Naturally.
It has the Transformers Pokemon and Spiderman theme songs
a great little song called
"It only takes one Night to Make a balloon your friend"
by a group called Lunch Money.
Flash loves this song and sings it often.
Also the Pink Pigie Polka Pancake Picnic
Hamster Dance, Cha Cha Slide, I like to Move it Move It.
and this song called "Gotta be me" by Agent 23 Skidoo.
They do a nice song about "Luck" too.
I am really enjoying my new-to-me iPod. Can you tell?

About Flash...

I named him Flash for the blog several years ago
because of his speed and energy level
and frankly...it fits him very very well.
He loves to pretend
and has decided to be a superhero when he grows up
and he has chosen his superhero name!
And it isn't Flash...its Cheetah Man.
I'll continue to call him Flash here,
but he'd probably prefer Cheetah Man.

Coming to the end...

Tomorrow is my last day of school. Woohoo!
Ok honestly I have to go to a training on Thursday
but that's offsite so I don't think it counts.
Today I tidied the books,
moved a collection from one bank of shelves to another
and redid all the signs.
Kind of a big undertaking but nice to be able to do it in one fell swoop.

Had a nice stormy night with the kids while Hubby went to the VBS meeting.
Some coloring, reading and playing
with an intermission for fruit cocktail (a Flash favorite).

Our VBS is next week during the evenings and it will be uninspired.
I'll go and help and Flash will have fun but...
I am rebelling (with Hubby's blessing)
Flash's signed up for VBS at another church in town later in the summer!
They really "do it up" over there.
Ha!
