Holy Cow...

It's hot! How's that for stating the obvious? It was supposed to be 100 degrees today, but Eric's car is saying 104. I'll go with the car.

Eric took the day off and we took the kids to the summer camp movie-Kung Fu Panda and then to the children's museum. I think if they had beds, Payton would sleep there. She absolutely loves the place. Stopped on the way home for snowballs, now back home and Eric's cooking us a big ole crab stew with the crabs that we had leftover from our crabbing excursion a few weekends ago.

I've been pretty busy with painting. Orders seem to be picking up this last month, which is good. Once you get used to that little bit of money coming in, it's hard to go without. LoL.

We bought one of those metal framed pools for the backyard, which has been beyond wonderful for the kiddos. Payton is swimming like a fish (this from being terrified of the water last year). They've swam every single day since we set it up and it's so refreshing after a hot Louisiana day! Like last year, I'm the primary caretaker of the pool, but I don't mind. It keeps the kids occupied and happy. Gotta love that!

Sorry for the lack of updates as of late, but we've been busy with summery stuff and trying to keep cool. We've frequented the majority of indoor kids places already and will continue to do so all summer. Cam and Pay got free skating rink passes and we'll be going try those out soon. Praying that no one breaks a bone. That said, mommy will be nowhere near a pair of rollerskates. :)

Happy hot summer day to ya!
