The start of summer is here, maybe not in the weather, but the summer months--June, July, and August--are here. At the Christian bookstore the other day, mom found a book on activities families could do together, and looking through it, they sound pretty fun to do. A couple of the activities I remember reading about was doing a scavenger hunt in your backyard, and on one day switching the role as parents and children. With that one, it talked about the parents acting as the children and so on (you get the picture). At the end of the day, ask each other what it is like switching roles and using a biblical basis for it. The book is quite clever in choosing various activities. 
Joshua and I are brainstorming as do many blogger brains I'm sure when starting a new blog. So, one of our thoughts is starting a little something called 'What's Happening this Weekend' series-type thing. Each Thursday, either Joshua or I will post what we are doing this weekend. It may not be anything exciting or there might be a lot of plans. Who knows. Let's see how this goes for awhile :)
This weekend, I Rachel, am doing the following:
Thursday evening: Bible study and spending the night at Grandma's house to help watch Elizabeth in the morning when momma is at work
Friday--helping watch Elizabeth, shopping at the thrift store with Grandma (I have recently loved shopping there, especially finding things you like!) Hoping to attend the home school graduation at church where my dear friends are graduating
Saturday--complete my chores, relax while remembering classes are finished, maybe take a walk in the evening with my mom
And Sunday--go to church with my dear family and worship the Lord!
"Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain."
--Found in The Bible, Psalm 127:1, NIV
Each day is a gift from our Lord and if we use it correctly with the ways He desires us to do, what a blessing it will be. The enemy loves to destroy our days--make a sibling angry about something and take it on the other brother or sister, place doubt and fear in our minds that tomorrow is going to be a bad day, and so on. Let us not let that happen!
