I'm trying really hard to be a fun and adventurous mom this summer. I have hopes for a theater outing, more movies (Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix is coming out soon!), reading the newest Harry Potter with the kids or listening to it on tape (the latter is highly recommended), going to the Dunes (Indiana or Michigan on Lake Michigan) and of course the all-important family vacation in August.
Have a great Thursday and weekend!

If you like camping try Geocaching, it is a blast, and cheap....
You put me to shame.
Other than the Vegas trip all I've done is sweat and work.
A very impressive list.
Loved #5. Some of the best parts of the city are yet undiscovered. I must admit, however, to not envying #13 -- well, I guess, for having survived it.
Congrats on a great list and I wish you many more items to add to it in the months ahead.
