Good morning, Reader! How are you today? I’m currently down in Georgia visiting my parents for a few days. What have you been up to?

Do you remember the carefree summers of the 80s and 90s? When long days were filled with outdoor adventures, neighborhood games, and simple pleasures? Today I’m sharing ideas on how you can bring back those days and offering practical tips to simplify your summer routine.

From revisiting classic games like hide and seek and water balloon fights to creating meaningful experiences over accumulating stuff, this post is packed with ideas to make your summer more enjoyable and memorable.

Here’s a sneak peek of what you’ll find:

• Rediscover Childhood Games: Introduce your family to the simple, joyful activities you loved as a child.
• Limit Screen Time: Encourage more outdoor play and reading by setting screen time boundaries.
• Focus on Experiences: Plan outings and activities that prioritize time together over material possessions.
• Reconnect with Neighbors: Build a sense of community with block parties, BBQs, and casual get-togethers.

The Homemaker’s Society

For weeks now, I’ve been hard at work on revamping the current membership site and I’m so excited about. 🙂 It’s up and running and I’m still adding content from the old membership site, but there’s a lot already on there.

If you are already a member, you should be able to login using your original login and password – I’m hoping and praying I did all of the tech stuff right (I did it by myself so pray for me haha!) Please let me know if you run into any issues and have a little patience!

NOTE: The old site is still active and running and you can still access everything there. I’ll leave it as it is until I have finished moving everything over.

And I’ll definitely keep you updated! I have a number of new things coming to the membership that I’m just SO excited about. I’ll share more soon!!
