I don’t know about you but summer dinner ideas need to be easy. I suppose it would make sense during the busy seasons of the year I would aim for easy meal prep. But summer we are too busy having fun. Who wants to get out of the pool early to make dinner? Not me. With the warm weather I love to have salads, sandwiches, and crock pot meals to keep things simple and refreshing. We have some new recipes this month and I hope your family will enjoy them.

2. Lemon Chicken Pasta (from last month. We didn’t get a chance to eat it yet)

We have been have a great time with our Summer Fun List so far. Reminders to do our chores first and occasional refereeing by me have taken place as well. But I love having more time to swim, read, and have fun with my family. I know Family Night helps our kids grow closer together in addition to helping them feel the Holy Ghost. I’m excited for our family night game plans below…
June 6th- Henry B. Erying’s Conference talk
June 13th- Father’s Day Lesson
June 20th- Living Prophet Series Thomas S. Monson (Last month we switched things up with family in town)
June 27th- Beach Bonfire with cousins
Hope that your family is enjoying their family time together. You can keep up with our summer fun on Instagram with the hashtag #kerrazysummerfun. Did I miss a must make summer meal? Share it in the comments below!
