2 days ago Parents, we are on the eve of another long summer vacation. I don't know about you, but I dread it. I await the chorus of "we're bored... again," and watching them quickly forget everything they struggled to learn the previous school year
4 weeks ago Thank goodness we finally had a nice weekend in Twin Falls! The weather worked out great for all of the planned activities, unless you had planned on building a snow cave - then you were probably disappointed. At the Bird House we got in some kite flying, biking, yard sales, yard work, and of course a little bit of a sun burn.

August 2, 2012 Glen Frey said it - The Heat Is On! Summer has finally decided to stick around (now that it is half over) with sunny days and a few scorching temperatures. For many kids the novelty of no school has worn off and rather than spend all day outside they have become one with the couch. For parents the novelty of summer may have passed around week two of having the kids home all day!
It’s the first day of summer and temperatures are expected to reach triple digits over the next few days, at least in some parts of the country. So, in that spirit, we present an awesome compilation of Slip ‘N Slide fails that’s guaranteed to beat the heat courtesy of the folks at HuffPost.
June 2, 2012 The countdown is on! Actually, for many kids school has already ended. My kids still have a few more days of class - which means my wife only has a few more days of freedom! While there are a lot of things to do in the summer, there usually comes a point when the kids are just done and turn on each other and the "vacation" becomes a nightmare.

April 26, 2012 These last few weeks have given us a small taste of what Mother Nature has in store for us this summer. We have had near 90 degree days and near 50 degree days.
June 21, 2011 Happy official first day of summer - the longest day of the year! That means more time for your kids to go crazy and for the stupid criminals to make the some silly news...check out today's knucklehead in the news and see how to keep your kids sharp during the summer so they don't become tomorrow's knucklehead!
April 22, 2011 This weekend is Easter, and then we end the season of gorging and get ready for summer...and your bikini and board shorts! Not surprisingly though, most of us are not ready to hit the sun and bare our skin in our swimsuits at the pool or beach. In fact, most Americans would rather g0 to the dentist or in-laws than deal with the swimsuit issue.
