Summer Heat

Today was a hot June day! The temperature rose to a scolding 98 degrees in fact. We decided to hide from the heat and spend the entire day indoors at home. This morning after breakfast though Eleanor and I decided to go to the grocery store to pick up a few things. It is so fun to get one on one time with just one child. I love it.

After naps I taught Everett how to play Candy Land. He picked up on the rules right away!

Eleanor was attached to mama all day! The boys decided they wanted to spend most of the day in their pi's so we put Eleanor in her jammies too!

After a lot of play time it was time for dinner! Today was the first day we have grilled this season. We grilled hot dogs (well veggie dogs) and burgers (whole grain tofu burgers). The kids loved it though! Eric also grilled corn and made macaroni and cheese. 

And then for dessert the boys had fruit juice pops! They were really messy but they loved them.


What a perfectly fun way to beat the summer heat! We love fun days at home as a family. Chaos and all, it is good quality time together.
