we are going on a fishing trip this year and i have a concert to go to in june, tim mcgraw and faith hill, we are going to sask, we went there last year and had a blast even tho it rained the whole time lol . we have a whole week to go this year and the kids are older i just can't wait lol, other than that

HappyCappy · 03-30-2007

Sounds like you have some great plans.

Well depending on Life, Plans are to do a lot of boating with our new boat. I would like to go to Drumhellur this summer as well with the kids.

Oh and I'm looking forward to the kids going to Summer Camp. 5 days to myself (yes I'm selfish LOL)

Oh and we'll be finishing the deck off this year. I'll have to paint.

I think that's about it.

SuperGirl · 03-30-2007

I am just waiting for spring breakup.... My room is totally ripped apart and I have set up camp in my daughters room. Waiting very PATIENTLY for my husband to be finished work so we can finish renovating our bedroom.

summer, I think we'll be working... So no trips for us.

babyhuggies · 03-30-2007

well hubby works through the summer---10 on 4 off (sometimes) usually out of town. This year might not be so bad...might be able to slip away for a weekend alone

every now and then ~ other than that can't make plans for much...maybe i'll go play ball this year...

JCJ · 04-02-2007

Summer means visitors...My mom, some friends, the in-laws....can't wait

bswiens · 04-02-2007

My daughter is getting married at the end of May. So we are getting ready for that and counting down the days.

I hope we have wonderful weather. We have family coming from all parts of Canada.

roxyjazz · 04-02-2007

Anxiously awaiting a nice sunny summer. My hubby is painting our bedroom next week (last paint job for the house). He has to finish the deck he started last year!!! Can't wait until July, my son is coming home from Alberta for a visit and no doubt the seafood he is craving. Planning a tenting trip while he's home. Good bye winter

KodaBear05 · 04-02-2007

I would love to go somewhere's for a summer vacation, but haven't had the chance in a few years now. I would like to go PEI or NB for a week. I've stayed in PEI before but never got the chance to go stay in NB, just drove through to get to Ontario. If my fiance ever gets vacation time (which I doubt it) then maybe we'll go for it.

bluebutterfly · 04-04-2007

wow you all sound like you are going to have fun,my husband leaves for alberta in 26 more days and we are trying to get our house done as well. hope all your summer plans go well and bswiens congrats to your daughter i hope you guys have fun.

itzzaangel · 04-10-2007

We have property in BC so we spend most of our time there. There is a Huge lake for fishing and water skiing, which will be nice for me this year, cause we bought our boat last year but I couldnt ski cause I was pregnant. We have 3 quads out there as well, and we love to go for long rides and find new places or take them to one of the little lakes in the area, ones you cant reach by vehicle and go fishing and have a picnic lunch. We are gone every weekend and we will go for 3 weeks in August. We are opening it all up next weekend..spring clean up, rake the yard, check everything to make sure its all working ect and then the season begins YAYYYY!!! we usually continue going till the end of september depending on the weather..this year is a late start for us cause its still winter!!! last year we were out there the begining of March! Its our lil get away its only 3 1/2 hours from us so we leave friday nights and come back every sunday..cant wait for the season to start.

Bambi5858 · 04-16-2007

My husband and I always take 2 weeks and go to Washington state. Camp at Watcom Meadows then tour to Seattle go whale watching check out all the different sites and such. It is a lovely relaxing time for us. Have made this trip 4 years running not sure if we'll do the same this year or check out different places in the states.

thenationalghost · 05-01-2007

I'm graduating from highschool this June!!!! I would like to go camping and celebrate this summer. As well, my best friend, brother, and two of my neighbours (who are really good friends) are getting married!!!! This summer is going to be a good one.

drftwd1 · 05-01-2007

Hopefully we'll get up to Northern Ontario(NorthBay or beyond)we went 3x last year, we just

it up there. Beautiful country, awesome people!
We might even go camping with our best friends, they have a camper.Cheryl

Nutmeg · 05-02-2007

Hmmm...I don't really have any set plans for this Summer. However, I do plan on winning a trip seeing as I entered every contest in the World LOL

We are also getting all our families together, and having a "Men of the BBQ" cook-off. Should be fun, I am really looking forward to that!

sherbear · 06-07-2007
