Where has the summer gone?

So here we are, it's the middle of August and lets see what we have accomplished academically...

We know Spongebob and his misfit friends on an intimate level (really, I saw the episode where SBob sports a thong!). 

I know there are 101 days of summer vacation and school comes along just to end it, or at least that's what Phineas and Ferb say to us every day ad nauseum. 

So, where is the summer reading that I swore we would conquered on the first vacation?  The math workbook I bought especially for the second vacation?  The letters and postcards to my daughter's cousins in Arizona?  The crafts we would fashion out of recycled goods?  I have no idea...

Then what did we do this summer? 

Road our bikes, played in the sand, amassed quite a collection of rocks, sea glass and shells.  Captured and released countless bugs.  Played flashlight tag, watched the full moon rise over the lake.  Witnessed an eagle soar above us as we lounged on a raft in a lake.  Kayaked, canoed, jet skied and sailed. 

Yep, I think we learned a lot the summer!
