12. Do an art/craft project twice a month for three months with my girls.

ALL DONE! The girls LOVED this idea sooo much that we will definitely have to come up with some great arts and craft activities.
We finished this item by making things for teacher appreciation week-the girls made posters for their teachers and then another day they made flower pens using coffee filters, water colors, and green writing pens. The girls' teachers LOVED the pens-cute gift idea!
I am looking forward to all the free time this summer so that we can get a TON of stuff done! If you have nay ideas-please feel free to send them my way.
