It is no secret that (while I love the sunshine) I'm not a huge fan of really warm weather. I turn into a bit of a wimp when the weather gets really hot. It makes me want to find the coolest place in my house and just hide... either that or get in the car and blast the air-conditioning. My aversion to hot weather probably has to do with the fact that we live in a place that is cold and rainy 85% of the year, so I'm just not that used to it.
At this point in writing my blog post, I just looked back and read what I wrote and realized that if being a bit hot and sweaty is my only real problem right now, I need to give my head a shake and stop complaining!
Moving on.
Jonathan is off work for the summer!!! Edison, Davis and I couldn't be more thrilled that we get to spend the whole summer together hanging around and having fun. Jonathan worked really hard this year with his regular job and a ton of piano accompanying for the ballet exams... he deserves the break.We spent our first weekend of summer vacation getting our backyard and patio summer-worthy. In fact as I am typing this, Jonathan is out picking up a pool for our backyard! Jonathan spent some time this weekend power washing and getting our patio all cleaned up. It looks great and it feels so nice to sit out there in the evenings when it starts to cool off.
The boys have been spending time in little-to-no clothing, we've been playing in the backyard, sitting in the shade, and playing in water to cool off. In fact we were so desperate for something to cool off in that Jonathan filled our rubber dingy with water and we sat in it. We won't have to do that for much longer once we get our fancy new pool going. Stay tuned for pictures!
Loving the play mat outside!
Edison's new backyard toy is a water gun. We've all been having a lot of fun with it.
Afternoon nap with my boy... the heat sure can wear a person out!
Ahhhh, summer :)
