Making a List...and Checking it Twice

Sunday marked T's 6th birthday AND one month until the new school year begins.  I think it always feels like summer goes by quickly, but this particular summer is actually the shortest we've had.  So, how are we coming on our summer bucket list you ask? I've crossed out items we've completed/are in the middle of doing.  Obviously we didn't stop reading library books after only one visit.  In fact, we've done a few of our bucket list items more than once.   Let's take a look...

It's never too late to start a chore chart is it?  We were out of the state for a lot of June visiting family and never seemed to get that one going after we got home.  It need to start...tomorrow...So we're at 43% completion and have less than month of what is "technically" summer vacation to go.  But, let's be honest, I have no intention of going to Build-a-Bear, so we'll never get 100% (Sorry, T).  I also feel that our summer has been jam-packed full of activity.  I think we'll give this list until Labor Day and see how many things we can check off.
