Summer Vacation - NOT

Mark and I were looking for a week to take the kids on a summer vacation.  We had two different ideas:  1) take them to a Florida beach or 2) do a church history tour going from Kirtland, OH to Niagara Falls, to Palmyra, NY, into NY city, Philadelphia, PA and the finishing at home or in DC.  The only problem was finding a week that one of the kids wasn't busy… and this proved harder than originally thought.


June:

6/3-9      Robert has try-outs but we could do a weekend thing (Saturday, Sunday)

6/10-16  Everyone is at camp except Jessica

6/17-23  Devon's on high adventure

6/24-30  Bellarmine Soccer camp for Robert

July

7/1-7     Open except we are in Toledo on Friday and Brighton Saturday and Sunday

7/8-14   Robert has basketball camp and Marissa and Devon have youth conference

7/15-21  Would be good except it is the week kids start mandatory practices

7/22-28 Marissa at EFY with Meg

7/29-8/4 start of the week open but then Marissa goes to XC camp

August

8/5-11   Mandatory practices start for boys XC

UGH!!!

There are only two weeks that are "fully" available- the July 1st week (except Devon will probably have to work July 4) and the week of July 15  (and starting July 15 practices are "mandatory" for girls XC).  I already have asked them to excuse Marissa for EFY which is the following week.

We could go when Devon is on High adventure (without him) or when Marissa is at EFY (without her) like I know Mark went on some trips with his parents with only part of the family.

Hope there is something we can do as a family this summer.  It's been a while since we went on a family trip!
