Today was a wonderful family day. It was the first official day of summer for our family, as daddy didn't have to wake up and go to work today, and we were home to share it with him. We spent the rainy, yucky morning at Chitown Futbol, who had an amazing PlayDay where they had four huge bouncers for the kids to get all their energy out. They also had the whole indoor soccer field decked out with a plethora of balls, some goals, and even soccer coaches scattered throughout to keep the whole thing safe and fun.
Oh yeah - did I mention they had free 10-minute massages, free wi-fi, free food (like pretty good mexican fare!), free workout facilities for parents, free coffee...yeah, it was cool.
I am grateful my husband is a teacher.
I love that he gets summers "off." The quotes are because he is teaching summer school this year, and so he's still working. But this whole coming week he is off, and that on the horizon, is divine. Please CPS, don't go to year-round school.

When I was young, I actually thought that it was normal for the whole family to have summer vacation, because both of my parents were teachers.
ReplyDeleteThis summer, my family is still benefitting, since two of the three daughters will be spending a week with their grandparents during summer vacation.
