Wind-Down Summertime Activities & A Giveaway

This is sponsored content by BlogHer and Kelloggs.



This giveaway is now closed. Please head to the next post in this series for another chance to win a $100 Visa gift card.

Summertime is drawing to a close, which triggers a wave of emotions for me. As much as I appreciate the extra time I am afforded during the school year to get my work done and keep the house in order, I know how much I will miss my boys once they return to school. As the early, frantic mornings of the school year move closer, we are trying our best to capture every magical moment of summer.

Memories are created in the simplest moments - kicking the soccer ball around in the backyard, frolicking in the water at the local pool, or eating on a popsicle on the front stoop. Our boys are full of boundless energy and they enjoy being outside and testing their physical capabilities. This summer, we fit in a couple of camping trips and hope to squeeze in one more before the sunny weather fades.

While our boys like to spend a good deal of time exploring the campsite, walkie-talkies in hand to report back to us, this is the year of the fishing rods. From the time they emerge from their sleeping bags to the first flicker of the evening fire, they spend every minute possible at the lakeshore or in the canoe, perfecting their spin casting and watching for tell-tale flashes of silver in the water.

Two to three times a day, we pull out the canoe and take a paddle across the clear lake, just enjoying the peace and the opportunity to be together.


Of course, there is always time for a little bit of silliness, 8- and 6-year old boy-style.


Camping is a time for us just to be together, without any of the distractions of everyday life. We have a strict "no electronics" policy while out in the wilderness and, as a result, the boys have come to appreciate the sounds of the wind whistling, blowing from one end of the lake to the other, and have learned how to listen for the tell-tale sounds of a nearby woodland creature.

We will re-create this magical cocoon one more time before the summer closes. From there, we will cover the canoe for the winter, put the sleeping bags back into storage, and turn our minds to the school year ahead. We will create memories there, too, because life at home really is not too shabby.



This giveaway is now closed. Please head to the next post in this series for another chance to win a $100 Visa gift card.

We spend every summer as a family in Boston's South Shore. This summer we made it a cross country trip & spent 8 weeks on the road exploring the USA. My son caught his very first fish in Montana! Your time w/ your boys looks precious.

Well school has already started here but this summer we did a lot of swimming, some really cool (free!!) events at the library and take in some free movies at the theather. Had planned to do a bunch of picnics and park time but man the heat is awful this year and we had no money to do any cool trips to the zoo, aquarium and whatnot, still had fun though.

We just went on our annual camping trip we take every year with 12 other families. It’s so much fun!! The adults and kids both really look forward to this trip every year!

One more family get together would be a great way to end summer.

I'd like to go garage selling and get to some auction yet if possible since I love both of those things!

School has already started here, so our official summer is over. It's still mega-hot outside, so we're planning to catch a few movies in good old-fashioned air-conditioned theaters.

Love this giveaway. Thanks!
