Well, the temperature outside confirms that summer is in full swing. We are spending a lot of time outside in the pool and playing on the swingset. Of course, we are making sure that we stay safe when we do so. We don’t forget sunscreen, we drink plenty of water and we avoid playing outdoors during the warmest parts of the day.
The one thing that can’t avoid no matter when I’m oustide however are those pesky allergies. If you suffer like me, any help you can get to survive them is welcome information. Dr. Josh Riff, Target’s medical director, created a set of videos to help families this busy summer season. Check these out:
Target’s Car Travel Tips from Target Health & Well-Being on Vimeo.
Target’s Asthma & Allergy Travel Tips from Target Health & Well-Being on Vimeo.
Target’s Summer PACK Tips from Target Health & Well-Being on Vimeo.

My most favorite thing to do in the summertime is going to the pool. Even growing up that was the one thing we did during the summertime. Now that I’m a mom though we don’t go as often as I would like. Something about dragging 5 children to the pool by yourself all the time kinda wears you out! lol

I have been with my boyfriend for 6 years now and he introduced me to Muskie fishing, which he does avidly, so that was the first time I was ever on a boat in 2005, and started muskie fishin, I caught my first Muskie in 2006 ,I was casting it was a 42 1/2 inch muskie. It is so exciting and relaxing. I absolutly love it and we release the fish that we catch very carefully. That is what I look forward to every summer now, I really enjoy it and the fish get huge and we release them and they are happy.
