Summer Surival Guide

( Big E and Chuckles one summer a long time ago. Mrs Pacific Scents bought her son this car wash thing. It was the hit of the summer!)

We have 7 more school days until school is out. Summer fever is running high here. Do you need some thrifty ideas for summer travel, entertainment, crafting, how to keep Mommy sane? Hey, it all about my SANITY. As a Mom, I sometimes run out of ideas especially since my guys are elementary age. It isn't as easy as turning on a sprinkler and handing out a Popsicle. I usually run out of ideas in the middle of the summer in a middle of a heat wave- seriously. Some really great bloggers have some thrifty ideas to make your summer great.

  1. Oh I remember that car wash! That was a great summer- lunch outside in the front of Amy's driveway and sitting by the fire at your house! Miss you guys!
