Last week I showed you our daily summer routine.  If you missed it, click the link and check it out so you'll know what I'm talking about :)

Now, here's the bottom half of that routine page:

The Great Photo Purge Challenge Week 1 Update & Tips

{This post was nearly ready to go on Monday when I lost power due to the crazy rain storm that hit the Toronto area.  Power came back on later and thankfully we had no basement flooding - many we know did - but then we lost our internet, home phone, and cable yesterday.  Won't likely be fixed until Friday due to the number of issues related to the storm.  So... I'm hanging out at my parents' place... using their internet to get some blogging done while the kids run through the sprinkler (my parents have a great backyard for sprinkler fun!).  Thanks for being patient with this update!}

Organizing Ideas For The Weekend #20

Happy Friday!  Time for another organizing idea for your weekend :)

With summer upon us, you may be looking for ideas of things to do.  Or you may want to create your own summer bucket list.  If you haven't already, spend time this weekend checking these lists out and making one of your own!

Organizing Our Summer: Daily Routine

Do your kids like routines?  Or do you like routines?  It's great to enjoy more relaxed times in the summer after being tied to to all the schedules dictated during the school year.  But most kids {and moms!} thrive in an environment that is still somewhat structured.  Routines help with that.

So, today I want to share with you the routine I put together for the kids and I this summer.  Actually, I made two routines.

Organizing Our Summer: Brainstorming Ideas {Free Printable}

It's summer!  Are you organized?  Some of you have just started your summer vacation and some have been at it for over a month now.  Either way, if you need some tips for organizing your summer, you've come to the right place!

Yesterday was our first "official" day of summer holidays.  My kids were in school until Friday, and Monday was Canada Day so my hubby was home.  So the kids and I are just kicking off our summer.  And, of course, I have to organize it :)

July Family Goals Printable and July Blog Goals

Happy Canada Day!  I'm so excited that it's July!  Summer is finally here.  My kids finished school on Friday and we are already enjoying our summer holidays.

June was a busy month with end of school celebrations, my son's baseball games and practices, Father's Day, and family birthdays.  Plus we transitioned from me working to my hubby working.  We're getting pretty good at those transitions, but it's always an adjustment.

Now we're making lots of plans for the summer.  More on that soon.

On the blog, June was mostly about the You've Got {Too Much} Email challenge.  I love my clean inbox!  Thanks to all of you who participated and who shared your tips.

It's time to share the July Family Goals printable with you!
