Trying to stay cool

With the triple digit temps we have had to use water a lot to get energy out!

My kids have a LOT of energy.

Ha!

I made the mistake of not wearing a shirt to the lake on Saturday and we went in the middle of the day.

Does not matter how hard I try to get sunscreen everywhere, I always miss a spot.

OUCH.

Also, slip n slides have to make some of the best pics.

I love the fun faces that I get from these.

When summer came to visit with my nephews ~Day 1

My husband’s parents came to visit last week bringing my nephews with them and the heat…

We have had a pretty mild summer this year with just a few weeks of really hot weather but while they were here it was just HOT.

Everyone tried out the Slackline in our backyard before the day got too hot.

Since I have lived in Oklahoma so long I try to remember my “too hot” is not the same for everyone.

I can sit outside in the high 90’s and think “this is not too bad, kind of nice really”.

I recognize I am broken though…

I knew if we did anything outside it needed to involve water!

I like water pictures anyway.

Thankfully kids like water also.

I think they feel like they are being destructive and making a mess but they are not!

Win, win.

After you are wet the intense heat feels pretty good.

Popsicles help also.

We survived the whole week with four boys and hot days!

I might need a vacation though!

We did a lot!

I will be sharing more of what we did, this week.

I can’t fit it all into one post!
