Good morning! It's the last week of school for my little kindergartner, and soon my husband and kids will be piling in the car and driving 19 hours east to the tiny island of Prince Edward Island, Canada. I've been here for the past month working, just waiting for my family to arrive, and for summer to truly begin!
I took the opportunity to do a layout about the important things I want to accomplish this summer. I really want to be present for all the little moments that will stay with us for a lifetime. Do you have goals for the summer? Recipes you want to try? Games you want to play? Places you want to visit? Try putting them down in a layout--- and then see what the summer will bring!
I can't wait to look back at this layout at the end of the summer and compare notes! I hope you all have a great summer and do all the things on your list too. ~ Lisa Kisch

I had to chuckle as to where you placed your to do jar... it only allowed you to write a few items... good for you.
We were out to PEI a few years ago. What a GREAT place. It was such a fun trip. One place that you may want to check out, that is a bit unique. It is located about 40 minutes west of Summerside on Route 11 and is called Cap-Egmont. The chap was way ahead of the recyling... he built some buildings out of bottles - one is a chapel.
Enjoy your quiet time while it lasts. Have a blast with your family on PEI!!!!!

What a great idea! I would love to enter myself in this give-away but I don't have an facebook account. This idea of a summer-to-do-list is awesome! And it looks great! This is one of those ideas I'm going to try out someday!

Lucky you to be in PEI. We are in the process of buying a house there so plan to spend some of next summer there.

Noo way! it's like making a new year resolution list - you never get things done and then feel bad about not accomplishing what you wanted. Though I could definitely sign off on every single item on your list, especially the last one! LOL))
