Just Call Me Julie

What do you do to keep your five children busy and ~~from strangling each other~~ happy during their 90 days of summer freedom?

lessons, ie. music, tennis, swimming?
cleaning, their rooms, the windows, the closets?
movies?
games?
swimming?
vacations?
send them out the door and tell them not to come back until dinner?
crafts?

I've been trying a combination of all of the above and frankly I do feel like an Activities Director/Cruise Director so you can call me Julie.

We've been having fun though.

There have been plenty of rounds of our new favorite game, Wackee Six.

A few crafts and a few sewing lessons......I'll post those soon.

Lots of movies....We just purchased a set from our childhood and the kids love it....Ducktales and the older ones enjoyed renting Alice in Wonderland and Percy Jackson.

Speaking of renting movies, Now that we have teenagers and preschoolers we can never leave the Redbox/rental store with just one, it takes at least three dvds to make our whole clan happy. That's why I enjoy getting our dvds from our local library, They're FREE!!! Can't beat FREE!!!!

We've also spent some time at the pool and hanging with the cousins.

I guess you could say we're spending summer the way it should be.

Things We Never Thought We'd Say But We Have. (We meaning mostly me and my dear husband.)

If you smile a lot now, when you're old you'll look like you're smiling all the time. Even if you're not. It's really much better to have people think you're always happy than to say, "She's not mean that's just her face."
Pickles are nature's way of saying, "Enjoy a cucumber this winter."
The science fair is not called "The Evil Science Fair" for a reason. We really should avoid blowing things up. That means no dry-ice bombs even if you claim to be doing research on greenhouse gases.
Mold doesn't grow that fast! If it did we'd all be covered in it and/or be dead. (Said in response to a daughter thinking mold had grown on her ice-cream in less than five minutes and she was going to get sick and die from it.)
Lift your arms so I can hit you. (A sister said to a brother)
Don't eat the cat food.
Don't eat dog food!
Fair is fair. If you get to shoot an apple off your brother's head, he get's to shoot an apple off your head.
Take the fork out of your nose!
Bubba-nick? Do you mean Bubonic? As in Bubonic Plague?
No you won't get bubba-nick, I mean the bubonic plague.
You should name your first child Bubba-nick!
You can not get botulism from drinking out of your cup that has been setting on the counter for 2 minutes.
You don't have throat cancer.
You don't have leprosy.
It's rough when my fans don't adore me.
It's all fun and games until someone gets hypothermia.
Mountain men don't wear short shorts.
Do you REALLY HAVE to talk like Tarzan at the table?
DROP the monkey!
There IS a striking similarity between the "Cowboy" dance and the "Potty" dance. It's easy to get them confused.
How do you spell "Mohican"?
Buffalo gives me gas.
Don't gargle your jello!
We do not throw snowballs at other people's Christmas decorations.
Get off your little sister, she is not a horse!
Take your underwear out of your mouth!
No singing with your mouth full.
Just don't lick the couch. Okay?!
Don't stick your nose in your sister's mouth.
That's what happens when you stick your nose in your sister's mouth.
Don't throw that salamander!
Stop hitting your sister with a lobster!
Take the plumb pit out of your nose!
