Ways to Stay Inspired This Summer

The dog days of summer are here!!  That means heat and blazing sun - the two things we wish for in the dead of winter.  

​Keeping the family happy and cool can be a struggle. This is the best time to enjoy the summer, so don’t let the high temperatures get you down.  Here are a few ways to keep cool:

1. Relax and Read Books. Summer is a great time to catch up on your reading whether its a magazine, newspaper or tablet.  Oh, and don't forget your local library!
2. Throw a Potluck BBQ.  Everyone has their favorite dish, right?  Why not get them all together and share?!  Get the grill going, gather up your loved ones, and make it an outdoor dinner party!  Don’t forget the ice-cream!
3. Catch a Summer Sunrise.  Don't let the summer go by without waking the kids up early to catch this miracle.  Most other times of the year it’s a bit too chilly to sit outside and watch the sunrise.  But during the summer something about the heat brings out those glorious colors!  Get to a beach for the open sky if you can!
