Fun in the sun, heat and humidity.

Here in Kansas it has been hot and humid for awhile now some days all we want to do is swim or stay inside and other days we get a little more adventurous and brave the heat and bugs...oh the bugs.

Spencer got this pool for his birthday and it was a little bigger than we thought it was going to be but every inch has been thoroughly enjoyed.

The sidewalk chalk rarely is used on the sidewalk.
Geocaching near lake Jacomo. Spencer thought it was so fun searching for the hidden treasures and even when Scott took him into some pretty dense woods he was quite the little go getter. Owen and I stayed out of most of the really crazy stuff...again the bugs, ugh.

Post dinner slip and slide.

Owen didn't seem interested in getting wet so I just left him in his normal clothes. I should know him better than that by now.
We have a great little lake with a path around it and a playground that is within walking distance from our house. We love it. Not a bad shot for the auto timer huh.





I love the heat and I even love the humidity and I LOVE playing outside with my boys but I do not love chiggars, mosqitoes or ticks. All of which we have had this summer.

The thought of ticks and chiggars makes my skin crawl. Do you have to check your kids every time they come in the house? I remember being covered in ticks once in the woods in Missouri. Ick. Ick. Ick.

I love that picture of your family! I'm surprised it was with the auto timer. Your boys are cooperating so well.
