Mmm...homemade donuts.

We just made some- Mom, Grant, and I. They're so tasty...and unhealthy. haha.

I miss you all! How have your summers been so far? Is it still sinking in that it's summer, or are you out there wreaking havoc on your hometown? (for me, it's the latter).
I want to know what you're all up to, and I want to hang out with you all too!
I also made a fun list of things to do over the summer. Tell me what you think!


Build a raft like Tom Sawyer and float down the river
Fly a kite attached to your bike
Go bushwhacking while blindfolded through the forest with a pal. Make sure you don't bushwhack your pal
Make a boat and see if it floats with you in it
Play Frisbee at night
Play underwater hockey
Practice stilt walking
Laugh out loud
Climb a tree
Flip some coins into a fountain
Go to the 24 hr grocery at 1 a.m.
Have an egg toss
Make a rope swing
Cut up a magazine and make a collage
Do a crayon drawing and put it on your fridge
Draw pictures of yourself as a barbarian
Make a flag for your bike
Make a trophy or certificate to represent a great feat that you have or have not done
Make a sculpture
Write songs and go outside and sing them so everyone can hear
Water Balloon fight
Dream the afternoon away on a riverbank
Ever try bird watching - what about bird listening?
Get up early to watch the sunrise
Make a house out of cardboard boxes
Next time you see a rainbow, stop and really admire it
Say hello to cows
Study the stars
Fall asleep on the lawn
Take digital pictures of your friends and add funny captions to them
Write a story with a friend, doing a chapter each- see how it turns out after a certain amount of time
Bring some friends and some life jackets - go out in two canoes on a lake and try to sink each other's canoe
Have an Olympics outside with your friends and see who wins
Have a scavenger hunt downtown
Wear a wig in the most unpredictable circumstance
Write five postcards to friends even if you are not on vacation
Make a slip and slide in your back yard
Make an entertaining phone answering-machine message
Sing in the shower with all your might
Use window markers and draw rainbows on your windows
Send anonymous secret admirer notes to someone
For a whole day put a word at the end of every sentence like 'Whoa!'
Play "fly on the Wall". Duct tape contestants to the wall and see who stays up the longest
Have a wheelbarrow race
Play a game of catch with an invisible ball
Play croquet
Sleep on your roof
