Summertime Family Activity Reminders and Father's Day

Fun Summer Activities & Father's Day
It hit me just the other day, summer's just around the corner! I've been opening my windows to let the wonderful fresh air and sunshine in! Finally, ladies! we can put our winter coats away and bring out those flip-flops, sandals and summerwear--Oh!Yeah! My family looks forward to going out; whether its just sitting on the porch for a lemonade or watching the garden grow.

We are making plans with the family to head out to the cottage in the Muskokas. We're getting the fishing boat out from winter storage, my brother Joe is tuning up the bikes and our Uncle Tony is our summer hiking leader, who checks out some interesting routes to explore that we vote on at our family meeting. Mom's checking our backpacks to have them ready at a moments notice for those weekend adventures!

And should you become more adventurous--check out the campsites around Ontario; RVing, Tenting, trails and when they open for this season.

Let's not forget all the sports options we can enjoy during the summer. Stanley Cup 2010 won by Chicago Black Hawks!! With World Cup soccer 2010 in South Africa starting shortly with 5 favorite squads participating.

And last but not least, let's not forget our Father, Dad, Papa, Pops or whatever title you've given him. We all celebrated our Mothers and now its Father's turn. By the way-- we've been celebrating our Father's Day for 100 years!

For years, the "Tie" was a popular Father's Day gift..now more than 21 percent of us think of the "Grill" as a Father's Day gift. This is a great reason for family members to get together...so fill up that cooler with Dad's favourite "brew", and grill food, set up that patio furniture his favourite deck chair and tunes.

Let's start the party...Its summertime!

Have a safe and happy summer everyone!
