Oh what do you do in the summertime

We are a month into our summer vacation now, and we've been going full-force. Here's the list we brainstormed at the beginning of summer:

As you can see, we've been busy. The first few weeks, the kids had swim team every morning and a swim meet once a week.

So, they were busy racking up ribbons, but other than that, we went swimming most afternoons and they did a lot of this and other kickback things (see the DS there--or maybe J's i-touch):

But the last week has been craziness. On top of swim team, Mister started basketball camp (2 weeks); he's at cub scout day camp this week (2:15-11pm); both kids did a cooking class (thanks, Groupon!) and made fruit gummies, flour tortillas, and taco torpedoes; and Sweetie has a sewing class this week.

J was gone 2 weekends in a row, and, as for me, I am tired. Do you think the heat might have something to do with it? YIKES!
