Summer Memories

September 4, 2009 | | 28 Comments

Now that a new school year has started, this is a good time to look back and reflect on our summer vacations (however short they may have been).  This summer, I had a chance to go to Washington DC on a trip with other teachers.  I also went with my mom and husband to Minnesota to visit family there. 

minnesotafabricWhile I was in Minnesota, my favorite memory was going on a quilt shop hop.  This is where you go around from one quilt store to another and see what they have, get free gifts, and a chance to go shopping.  Minnesota makes their own fabric, and I now have a collection of Minnesota fabric that I plan to make something out of (although I’m not sure what yet. 

What did you do this summer?  What is your favorite summer memory from this year? – If you are one of my current students, I expect your response to be at least one paragraph in length!

    I think that’s very interesting! What I did this summer was when my cousins and I went to California to visit our aunt and uncle. We went to the beach and went surfing or swimming. The ocean was very salty, so I had a lot of salt in my hair. It was my favorite summer memory from this year.

    Did you enjoy swimming in the ocean? I love boogie boarding in the ocean, but I shouldn’t really go in because I get a rash from the water. Crazy, huh?

    That sounds like it was a lot of fun, I’v always wanted to go to Washington DC and Minnisota. Did you have fun? I didn’t do much over the two weeks of summer we had. I pretty much just stayed home all summer. I spent the night at my friends housse. My friend spent the night at my house, So thats pretty much all i did over the summer.

    What I did for summer was going to California,
    and the things that I did in California is going to Knott’s Berry Farm and Soak City. I thought Soak City was better. My favorite part of Soak City was riding The Flush.
    I thought that summer break was fun!

    Minnesota was awesome. We spent a few days in Hibbing with my grandmother and several days in Minneapolis with the rest of my family. I spent two whole days at the Mall of America shopping for clothes too! While I like getting new things, I don’t like the process of shopping, but I enjoyed the time with family anyways!!!

    I wish that I some where as cool as you people, but I didn’t. I stayed at home with my cousins. That’s pretty boring. Especaly when they won’t even let me touch the Wii.

    Hey Mrs. K, it’s been a long time since the last time I saw you!! I remember when I celebrated my birthday Cole and Brendhen came 3 hours early before the party even started. We were dieing of boredom. I finally got my first cellphone 2 days later. I stayed in Las Vegas for the entire summer vacation.

    this summer I went to Los Angles, California to visit my family. We went to Disneyland and to the zoo. After that we went to the Mall to buy new clothes and shoes. When we got home, we rented a jumper. When the jumper came we helped our uncles to fill the Jumper with air. After that we ran inside and jumped all around. The next day we left to Las Vegas. I hope I go next year.
