check out this giveaway from Scarlet Lime!

It’s like ten at night, and i am just sitting down for the first time! well, aside from hours of meetings! Seems like it was just a whirl wind! But in a good way! I am really excited about a couple new opportunities! But it also means that I need to get my butt in gear! My kids don’t get out next week, but they are DEFINITELY ready to be done! The weather hasn’t really turned warm, so it doesn’t feel like summer! I wonder when that will happen- although the days are getting longer, and sun is setting later...

Tonight Cory was awarded his “Arrow of Light” which is a Cub Scout award. He worked really hard to get everything pulled together now that he is officially 11, and graduated to Boy Scouts. A total decked out mountain man came to present the award, and explain the significance of the arrow- he told cory to hang it on the NORTH wall of his room, where the arrow would always point to the east and remind him that every day is a new day!  Cory had all the laws and mottos etc etc memorized… it was so cute! I am proud of him!

I have straightened up the house, I can hear the hum of the dishwasher- and this is my time to really focus!  I need to get so many things out of head and onto paper-

love Scarlet Lime! Only kit club I am in at the moment....as for this summer, it would be sleeping in! Now if my kids will cooperate and not get up at the crack of dawn perhaps we can sleep in, which would be anything past 7am!!

[Sherry Sund]

We will be having our half term holiday of a week starting tomorrow, so the summer holidays still seem to be some weeks away. I'm looking forward to going to Cirque du Soleil.

[Mwingstedt]

Yay, Cory! Great job!!!

I can't wait to NOT have to wake up early to pack lunches (never really got into that "night before" thing...;)) - scrapping outside & dirty little outdoor-smelling kids (loooove that smell...)

Thanks for the chance to win!

[Tracey Ireland]

I am looking forward to no homework. Or should I say not reminding them about homework and studying!

Love the Scarlet Lime opportunity!

[Tammy Kist]

looking forward to being lazy, sort of :) And can't wait to see my oldest when she comes for a visit.

Wonderful giveaway...I can't wait for the lazy days of summer with minimal schedules and just enjoying each other's company. This past while has been so crazy I feel like we haven't seen each other much. Bring on the sunshine!

[tambee]

Smell of freshly cut grass, tomatoes from the garden, ice-cream lady coming through the neighborhood, WATERMELON!, baseball, camping and the SUN!

[Erika Taylor]

Being able to spend some time doing things outside with the children. Our sons first hockey camp, Sleeping under the stars and CHA!!!

Congrats to Cory! Well my favorite thing every summer to look forward to is watching all (100 plus) games of baseball that my 17 year will play in this summer. We just have a blast traveling to new places/states, being with family and friends watching my son play some great ball. Great giveaway too! My fingers are crossed really hard :)

[Rena Allred]

So Pretty! I love those pink beads too!!

I am looking forward to the HOT weather, warm nights, crickets chirping and late night walks with the family!

[Lara Read]

I'm looking forward to it just being warm so we can do some boating and hiking! Love the scarlet lime stuff! Thanks!

[Elisha Wiggins]

Oh I am so looking forward to not having to pack all of those darn lunchboxes and water bottles everyday. I still have to make lunch for my kids, I know, but at least now it doesn't involve 25 baggies and all of those containers, plastic cutlery, etc...

[Shay]

Congratulations to Cory! I am most looking forward to seeing my grandparents and the rest of my family in July. Thanks for the chance to win!

[Nancy Meehan Hyland]

this is soo cool, I have been dying to try some of this beading stuff!! This summer I am looking forward to some family and beach time.

[Lisa M]

I've already planted my flowers so I have the "pretty up the place" thing going on. Next week is cleaning...especially the scraproom so that I can be very creative this summer. I love to sit in my scraproom and look out at the pretty flowers blooming! I'm looking forward to getting together with friends and attending various scrap events!

[Lisa Bramill]

So pretty. I have always wanted one of these.
I can't wait for watermelon kisses & sticky finger hugs from smores. Spending time with my family camping, swimming, and hiking.

[Amy Shumway]

I am looking forward to sunshine, watermelon, my kid's sunkissed faces, and lots of fun pictures to take!!
