Is everyone done with school now? Everyone? Oh, good, it's finally summer! We'll be spending our weekend introducing Toby to the Star Wars movie--which has nothing at all to do with local events, or summertime, or the fabulous weather, but it's all we've heard about in our house for the past two weeks. I'm pretty sure we can't top that, but once the movie is over I'm hoping for some time in the sun, some fresh veggies and some free music.
