One thing that my husband and I try to do, is make everyday things fun. We love to find teachable moments in casual conversations and create experiences our kids will remember. Today, on a lazy Sunday, we went to the pool for playtime with friends and had lunch, but then it began to rain. We planned to give the kids haircuts because the boys were looking pretty shaggy and Amaya hasn't had a haircut in 2 years. I'm always coming up with hair brained schemes, so I said to Jesse, "let's give the kids a day at the salon! Our OWN salon! A Bauer Spa day!" The hubs was on board, so we made it happen. Here are some pictures of our afternoon. The boys got cuts by Daddy the Barber. Mommy gave Amaya a trim and every kid got their nails cut and trimmed. Amaya picked a pretty pink for her toes. I think the Bauer Spa is open for business going forward!

All finished!
Time for nails
Now that summer is here, I will share my ideas of how to make the most of your everyday chores and make them fun for your kids. Stay tuned for more of our Summer Series!
always,
