Hot Summer Days...

Last week was very humid and hot outside all week...one day Laura, Marissa and Emma came over to visit while everyone else went to help Jessica with some remodel projects at her house. While the kids were here it got super hot out...so that called for one thing...lunch on the deck...
We had a tasty lunch of tacos...we pulled the little table outside for the kids and enjoyed the fresh air while eating...
And we had lots of watermelon for dessert...in fact we ate an entire watermelon in one afternoon!
After eating the kids put the slip-and-slide on the hill...and we set the little water sprinkler at the top...what a fun way to cool off...
We had little bikes laying around, the little tent outside, the pool, sprinkler, swings on the clothesline pole...and I was enjoying every minute of it! I love the busyness of children's activities...
After lunch my Mom, Colter, Ceara and Lisa all came back to my house...and the kids all enjoyed more watermelon while taking a little break on the picnic blankets...
Water sprinkler fun...
I love this picture my mom captured...Colter going down the slip-and-slide...big splashes!
We might need to up-grade to a larger pool by next summer...they look just a little cramped!
While all the kids were busy playing I was able to cut some squares out of fabric for making a little blanket...
I think all the kids had a fun afternoon of water play...Elsie took a very long nap that afternoon!
