Welcome Summer (& Complete School/Play Room)!

Happy first day of Summer! For us, it has been a complete family day! I even scrapped exercise to stay with my babies and enjoy the day! Only thing wrong with today was it passed too quickly!! We started the day with a yummy Pinterest inspired breakfast. Canned cinnamon rolls in a waffle iron...why have I never thought of this!? So easy. So quick. So yummy! Will definitely be doing this again! :)
And from there, it was just being together and getting stuff done! I can officially say, after Chris got everything hung this morning, our new school space is complete! This is exciting for me and the kids! I have spent countless hours over the last couple weeks trying to get it all straight, sorted, and organized just right for my type A personality. ;) After completing our first year of homeschooling, it was clear to all of us that we definitely wanted to continue on, so we made a more spacey homeschool space! So Powell Institute of Learning is set to reopen at the beginning of August! ;) It's perfect and the kids beg to sit and do their summer workbooks! Let's hope this enthusiasm last! So here's how it turned out...
Grayson's space :)
Ada's space!
Mommy/Group work space! :)
I wanted to have a clear division between school and play and I am pretty happy with the result!
Still have to get the dress up corner like I want it, but be did get the mirror hung up for the sweet girl, and she is so thrilled with being able to see herself all dressed up! ;)

Daddy got his Father's Day present put together...a new grill, and made us some hot dogs! Once again...Yummy! It's like 83792 degrees in June during the day, so swimming is about the only tolerable activity, so that's what they did! ;) Watching those carefree spirits enjoy the simple pleasures of life is so wonderful! 
Along with Daddy's grilled hot dogs we had some special first day of summer treats! And side note, this is my "baby" boy's last Saturday as a five year old...I can hardly believe it!!! So tomorrow, birthday week begins! You know by now how much I love birthdays!! It's going to be a fun week!! :)
