on a hot, hot day in July..............


We have officially hit a heat wave in the great state. Three days in a row over 90 degrees qualifies us as a "heat wave" and we have had more than three days... it's been a whole week. I am NOT a hot weather fan and find myself sitting about, getting nothing done. With a wedding at the end of the week, getting nothing done is NOT good, but it's all I can do. Today, however, we took a break from the heat.....
Kass and Reagan came up and along with Abbie and I, we spent the day at camp, playing in the lake.  I like the water, but can't say I am a real swimmer, so, when you find me in the lake, let alone spending the better part of the day in the lake, then you know it's HOT.... all the doggies took swims too,
Reagan is turning out to be a real water baby, and he smiled all day long being in the water and nice and cool beside the lake....
He floated around in the "lily pad" and had a great time with Mommy, Abbie and Baby....
Course, we all know what a fish Abbie is... and every time, she tries a little more... she really is almost at the point of truly swimming.... and we really have to watch her, because she has no fear and would try to swim across the lake if she thought she could...
All smiles.....
She will go completely under the water and can even swim a bit.... I love the fact that she is happy at the lake. Sadie was just like her and spent many hot days swimming... the next generation is "taking over"....











There was no limit on the water today... and it certainly helped to renew our energy... but I will be so happy when we can get back to "normal" weather!!!!!
