My Blog's not Broken

Here I am again wishing I wanted to blog and had lots of fun stories to share... but I don't.  Summer is in full swing and I'm ready for school to start, well not exactly.  On purpose, the whole family does the summer play at the theater.  Our performances are in a week so when June begins, so does practically every night rehearsals.  That means that by 4 pm our day is basically over.  At home anyways.  We eat dinner or pick some up and go to the theater till 9 pm.  This makes our summer fly by.  It also makes it hectic, but summer flying by is totally worth it.  Now, it also means I barely cook and we eat way too much fast food as well.  My kids are definitely not complaining about that though.  With all that said, I'm just going to give a quick run down of what life is like here for us.  A summer day looks mostly like this:

- wake up late cuz we were up late at rehearsal
-kids have to do chores listed on white board before they can watch tv or play wii
-wii or tv cannot come on before 10 am regardless
-MWF Brooklyn and I go to church for workouts
-Thursdays are summer movie day and usually a stop at Goodwill
-Occasional play dates or pool visits
-A lot of tv and wii and board games
-early dinner or takeout
-3 hours of rehearsal
-4th meal when we get home because now everyone is hungry and wound up
-Mom slinks into room to hit the sack before everyone else

That's pretty much our every day.  Add in some grocery shopping, church on Sunday and a date night and that's all there is.  Not a lot to blog about.  The play is done this weekend, bittersweet. But after that, we leave for 4 days over the 4th for camping, then leave a week later for a week at the beach.  5 days after getting back the first kid starts school with the rest a week later.  See, summer flies!!
