Bring on the heat!! Wow! We had fun outside first thing this morning to try and beat the heat! Only way to do that was to be near water. We played in the pool and hose and even washed my vehicle!!! Yea! After lots of play time, we came inside for lunch and with this heat, will probably be inside the rest of the day! The older kids watched the trailer to the library movie and decided they didn't want to watch it, so we will all watch a movie here, at 2 this afternoon. We made s'more trail mix to snack on during the movie-yum! Enjoy your weekend and stay cool!
Rain, rain go away, we don't like being stuck inside all day! We made the most of our rainy day and enjoyed How to Train a Dragon 2 (cute movie)! Then we had fun acting out the movie with the dollhouse, figures and dinosaurs! Very creative play time! The plan is to take the older kids to the library at 2 for STEAM activities, but if it is pouring down rain or storming at 2, we'll just stay put! The little ones and I will come back to the house after we drop them off. At three, we'll go back to get them and then we are going to take William home (sw CR), but we will be back home again by closing time! Have a great day and make your own sunshine! Summer fun without the summer heat! We are having a blast staying outside today! It's nice to be outside and not sweating! We have lots of friends here today, too! William is here to play with Harrison and our neighbor's girls are here while their mom takes an old dog to the vet. :(. Weekly payments are due tomorrow and we are in the works of a future lemonade stand! (I wonder if anyone will drive out here for it)! ;) enjoy the summer day! Fun with friends and fun with animals today! We enjoyed our morning outside and then our afternoon at the EPL to meet 4 new animals from Blank Park Zoo! We met a toad, a parrot, a hedgehog and a skink. We got to touch the skink! We live our little library and all they have to offer us! On the way home, everyone got an extra special treat (ring pops)! That will explain any blue, purple, red or green lips! ;). Have a great afternoon! Happy Monday! We have lots of extra friends here this week! Harrison is having Jackson spend the day/night today and Tori is having Kyla do the same. Elizabeth is here for the day today, also! Later this week, Harrison is having his friend William over and Tori is planning to have a friend over again, too. On Friday, Jackson and Elizabeth will be back for the day again. Lots and lots if friends this week!! ;) Tomorrow, we are planning to go to EPL at 2pm to see Blank Park Zoo! Always a favorite summer activity! What will we see this time??? Due to the heat advisory for today, we got outside right after breakfast and played until 11 outside. By then, we were all pretty sweaty and feeling the humidity! We made pudding pops and put them in the freezer, they will make a nice, cool treat for us this afternoon! Yum! Stay cool this afternoon! Happy Friday! Anyone that wants to join us tonight, we'll be having cold drinks in the backyard! ;). We enjoyed the nice weather playing outside this morning. We had planned on Friday Flix at the EPL, but our littlest friend is teething, so we are going to stay home and watch The Lego Movie, here. Have a great weekend! Outdoor fun at Wickiup Hill! We had a great morning at the nature center! Maple syrup, magnifying glasses, eagle's nest, water fun, turtles, fish and snakes! Oh my! We enjoyed a walk on the trails along the wetlands, too! The kids had fun on their bellies and tried to reach the water. We found clams, frogs, dragonflies and turtles! It was a fantastic morning! Weekly payments are due tomorrow (no charge for Monday). This is like fall weather! We still enjoyed it and had a great time playing outside. We did go into CR to get supplies for fairy gardens. We also stopped at the animal shelter to see the cats and dogs, but they were closed and we didn't get to go inside to visit them. We will try visiting them another day. Welcome back! I hope everyone enjoyed the holiday weekend. We had a nice vacation together and enjoyed the break from the everyday Today was the last day of 4H camp for Harrison and Tori. After camp, we ran Harrison to a friend's house to play for the afternoon. We enjoyed a great summer meal of hot dogs, fruit and macaroni salad for lunch. Yum! The kids are having a blast with our feisty kittens! Jeb and Jethro have been out all day, too...they are doing great with running loose. We also have two new farm animals in the pasture-two horses! We are going enjoy the rest of the day outside, it is sooooo nice out! I will be closed until Tuesday to enjoy some time with the family! I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend. We had a relaxing and playful morning, both inside and outside. Surprisingly, it was a little chilly outside without the sun shining! We love these relaxing low key summer days!!! Of course, the kittens always keep us entertained! They are very playful these days! Enjoy the rest of the day! |
