Summer Vacation!!

I can not belive it, it is finally here... SUMMER VACATION!!!!! First official day and I am sitting here with only one child. How did that happen already? The house is super quiet,(sweet). #3 is at her last day of daycare, only because I had a luncheon that I had to attend with the school I was working at and I could not leave her home with #2, so she had one last day to go. #2 stayed and played video games while I was gone~the house is still standing when I got home too, PHEW! #1 went right to a friends house yesterday after school got out. He had 1/2 a day yesterday when he was done with exams. He will be home in a couple hours, then all the chaos will break out!!
We are finishing our 1st day of summer break this evening when we go out to eat with a friend I have not seen in probably 15+ year! She lives in Az, and when I was younger, still at home, we would travel to Az and see the James family. They use to live next door to us in NY before they moved to Az. We visited them in Az when my mom was alive and once she passed we found ourselves there for a few Christmas holidays. I do not remember the last time we went but I know it was when I was in high school. Anyways to make a long story a little short, we are meeting up with my dear friend because she is in town, not too far from me and having dinner with my kids and my dad. I can not wait to see her and I really hope my kids bring that great behavior that I know they have, with them this evening. I am bringing the camera and if all goes well I will post a picture or 2 =).
Tomorrow we are off to swim and somewhat escape this warm weather we are having here. It is still hot today but not as bad as the last 5 days were. Still in the 90's but at least it is not 99-100, ugggg!
I hope you all enjoy your summer break, that is if yours has started. Maybe I will now find the time to post more often and keep everyone updated with our going's on.
