Trying

I'm trying to stay cool in this summer heat. Trying to stay caught up on house work. Trying to keep up with my children's endless energy. Trying to get you all caught up on our ferociously fast summer.



Carson has got staying cool down to an art!

It was a Tuesday so the pools were closed but we were able to avoid the heat and let the kids jump all the silliness right out of them from the comfort of the couch!



Learning never stopped this summer. Besides reading LOTS, playing games that didn't feel educational (but totally were), we got to learn about the critters around us. One day while watching Daddy hammer away we found a furry friend, yes I said friend. No he didn't get to come home with us, not because I wouldn't let Him (Daddy put his really BIG foot down!) But we did learn a lot about tarantulas. They are very cool and who knew, so fragile. The boys and I know now! We still have two snails we had a few tiny frogs for a short while. They just were not meant to be house pets.




Marshall thinking the tarantula was neat.




Again Carson being cool, no scratch that, staying cool. But hey, when you're not hot in the extreme heat we have had, who cares how you look! Which in case you were wondering, the term would be "cute".
