I thought we would stay busy this summer with our summer list. It would serve as a "to-do list" as a way to keep us occupied during the long days at home. We stayed busy most days with at least one outing a day whether it was to the grocery store or to the Adventure Science Center. Ultimately, Grant still spent a little too much time playing Xbox and... we probably made a few too many trips to Target. Yep. I am sad to admit that he started complaining one day about his thumb. As it turns out, he developed a small blister from playing too much!
Here's a picture recap of some of my favorite summer memories. Also, one of my favorite outings this summer (which was not photographed) was our family outing to Nashville Shores.

Ultimately, it was probably the best summer ever. Drew is still as sweet as can be and Grant is at such a great age. He can pretty much occupy himself and is an incredible help in occupying Drew. On the other hand, he is great to hang out with... inquisitive, silly, and... a bit obsessive.
His current obsession is with cars and racing. In fact, most of his free time this summer was spent like this: racing cars.
Cars EVERYWHERE. All over the floor. The coffee table. And, his primary racetrack... the couch! He is so obsessed with cars that his little two year old brother now knows the difference between a Porsche and a Ferrari and a Corvette.
After endless days of racing hotwheels cars, fieldtrips with me and Drew, swimming, and Motorsport on Xbox, the first day of first grade was here before we knew it.

Thanks guys for the best summer ever.
