With Mr. 8 headed to summer camp this week, we are in preparation mode.
Spending family time together yesterday and trying to fit in all the loads of laundry between our activities, we are putting it all together.
Somehow, I find packing for a boy much easier than when I went to camp.
As we get ready to head up to the mountains, I am reminded of those readers who would love to have oodles of summer reading options. But the big chain stores are not in your area.
For those you who rely on your own creativity for summer reading, I hope you will find the Traveling through the Pages resources helpful from Everyday Snapshots.
