Summer 2026 was full of sunshine, adventures, family time, and plenty of memories for our dental team! From lake days and concerts to zoo trips, summer bucket lists, and time spent with loved ones (and lots of furry friends!), our team definitely made the most of the season.
Making a Summer Bucket List
One of our team members decided to make the most of every summer day by creating a summer bucket list! The list included trying new ice cream spots, visiting new parks, playdates, cousin sleepovers, mini golf, and plenty more. Each activity was documented with photos and turned into a scrapbook—a special way to remember Summer 2026 for years to come. 🍦📸
Lake Days, Pool Days & Summer Getaways
For some, summer meant spending as much time outdoors as possible. There were plenty of afternoons at the pool with grandchildren, relaxing weekends at the cottage, and days spent out on the lake enjoying the boat. Family and friends were never far away, and neither were the dogs! 🐕☀️
There were also beautiful sunsets, summer flowers, good books, and even a sister’s trip to Florida—complete with a little unexpected tropical-storm adventure!
Adventures Close to Home
Our team found plenty to do right here at home, too. Summer adventures included a trip to the Lego Convention, a visit to Brookfield Zoo, discovering new local cafés, reconnecting with old friends, and even spending time working on family genealogy.
Music, Boating & Wisconsin Fun
One employee enjoyed a summer getaway to Wisconsin filled with boating and games with family and friends. And to top it off, the summer kicked off with something extra special—a Bruno Mars concert! 🎶
Home, Horses & Four-Legged Friends
Summer also provided plenty of time to enjoy the little things. One team member spent time relaxing on a new screen porch, enjoying time with family and friends, riding her horse, Colette, and, of course, spending plenty of time with her dogs, Gilly and Winnie. 🐴🐾
Family, Celebrations & a Little Renaissance Magic
For another member of our team, summer was filled with family celebrations. There was a big summer party, a visit from a sister who stayed for over a week, plenty of time in the pool, and a special trip to the Renaissance Faire while family was in town. 🏰✨
A Busy Summer at Home
For another employee, summer was full of family, friends, and plenty of activity! They hosted a huge summer party with a packed house of 20 family members, including six kids, four dogs, and a cat! 🐶🐱 Between enjoying our pool, weekend family time, playdates, outdoor activities, and a trip to the Renaissance Faire, they definitely kept busy.
They also had two big summer goals for their son—to get potty trained and learn how to swim—and both were a success! 🎉🏊♂️ As summer comes to an end, their getting ready for his next big adventure: starting a toddler program at his Montessori school.
Summer Well Spent
While everyone’s summer looked a little different, one thing was clear: our team knows how to make the most of summer! From big adventures and special celebrations to simple days spent with family, friends, pets, and the people we love, Summer 2026 gave us plenty of reasons to smile.
Now that summer is winding down, we’re bringing those memories—and hopefully a little extra sunshine—back to the office with us. ☀️🦷💙
Until next summer… we hope you enjoyed finding out what we did! 😉
