This summer was the best summer of my life. Hands down it was the best.
And the funny thing is I said that last summer, too. Yet this was even better.

I wonder if homeschooling all year adds to my love of summer. I have run into so many moms and dads who are anxiously counting down the days until they can send their kids back to school. That makes me sort of sad. But that is another line of thought I don’t mean to go down now. We loved our summer. I loved our summer together. The carefree days were a sharp contrast from our normal, disciplined, week-to-week school schedules. Of course discipline is a blessing when you are trying to maintain order and continually move ahead in your studies. But boy, oh boy, does that freedom taste so SWEET as summer rolls in.

Without question, one of the BEST parts of summer this year were our season passes to Seabreeze. God-willing and budget-able we will do this again next year, too. The passes allow 15 visits, but for some reason I keep counting 16 for us. No one at the ticket booth can explain, but we appreciated it. We are one of the few families I have talked with that actually used all of our visits. So – without further adieu – the top eleven reasons we will do Seabreeze season passes again next year.
