We are smack in the middle of summer heat around here with heat indexes of 100+. You would think that would make us stay in and take it easy, but for some reason it hasn't. We have been shopping, gardening, having playdates, reading (see previous post), picking berries (OK, we did that before it got too hot), and of course swimming, swimming, swimming! Thus, the reason for the bloggy silence lately. We've just been too busy to sit down at the computer.
We have a relatively quiet morning today, and while the kids are playing nicely together (for the moment at least), I thought I'd jump on here and share some pics of our summertime adventures. Here's what we've been up to...
Earlier in the summer, before the mercury jumped too high,
we went blueberry picking. This was our first time to pick fresh berries, and we loved it!
We went with friends which made it even more fun!
Of course, the best part was the yummy blueberries we are still enjoying!
We spent 4th of July weekend at Grandma & Grandpa's.Despite the heat, the kids had so much fun climbing trees....
Driving the "tractor"...
And just being in the country.
What's summer without a trip to the county fair?Little Miss and Little Man loved it all...the petting zoo,
The rides
And the food!
It's not the fair without sno cones and cotton candy, right?
Now that the heat has settled in, we've spent a lot of time in the water.
There is an awesome park nearby with a huge fountain for the kids to play in.As you can see, it's a favorite water spot for us!
So, what have you been up to this summer?
