If I have not mentioned it enough lately, let me say that we are BURIED in killer heat here in Texas. I think (though I have quit trying to keep up) that we are at about 60 days of 100 plus degrees. And...that is not just 101 degrees...it is 105 to 108 daily! Oh my!
The phrases
"Hot Fun In The Summertime"
"The Dog Days of Summer"
and others keep coming to mind as we all wait this horrid weather out. But...there is a sure fix for the summertime blues!
Brooklynn!It was nice to have a respite from the cabin fever that we are all suffering from. That respite came in the form of a busy day with Little "B"!
We started with a little Elmo in our PJ's. No need to hurry to get out to play. It is 95 degrees by 10am. (Yes, that is Sara's head we are using as a pillow)!
Next, off to see Miss Molly at the library for some song and story time. We were a week early for the fall session :( so we just picked out some books and did some reading while we were there. Hundreds to choose from but the only ones that mattered were the ones that included the Sesame Street Gang. Good characters have a long life span. Elmo and Big Bird have been family friends for about 34 years now....and they make me laugh even today!
Back at home it was time to whip up some brownies for Sara when she got home from work. Brooklynn is quite a little homemaker. Her domestic skills we surely NOT inherited from her Gramma.
But maybe they will rub off on her Gramma!
A little play time with our village. I have discovered that saving some of those old playthings does pay off!!
Nap time over it is time to wait at the window for Aunt Sara to get home from work..
And finally out to play awhile in the pool, which is about the same temperature as the bathtub.
What a great way to spend a very hot Friday!
