Ten Things to do Before Summer Ends!
Summer days fly by much too quickly and if you’re not careful, you’ll be buying backpacks before you’ve eaten one ice cream cone or a single slice of watermelon! Here’s my list of must dos before Labor Day arrives:
- EAT: not just one food item but many! Don’t miss out on watermelon, ice cream cones, corn on the cob, tomatoes garnished only with a dash of salt, s’mores and fudge or salt water taffy.
- SAND: bury your feet in warm sand, whether it’s by an ocean, lake or sand box!
- COOK: an entire meal with what you’re able to buy from a local farm stand!
- SLEEP: declare a day when everyone in your family gets to sleep in – no camps, appointments or scheduled activities!
- READ: a fabulous, can’t put it down, (maybe even trashy?) pager turner novel!
- RELAX: spend a quiet afternoon in a hammock, raft, chaise lounge or beach chair.
- BREATHE IN: the scent of sunscreen as you apply it to yourself and your children! This is a scent that truly belongs to summertime!
- CATCH: fireflies!
- COFFEE: enjoy your morning’s first cup of coffee outside – on your porch, deck, balcony, patio or front steps!
- ENJOY: an outdoor concert, movie or play! Pack a picnic dinner and make it a night!

Just saw this same idea on another blog, thought it was a great one & wrote my own. You’ve given me a few more ideas to add.
