Hot Fun in the Summertime

Other ways to stay cool? No Clothes!!
Proud, naked Grant.

Tate with a loud popping firework.



It's hard to see in the daylight but he is holding a sparkler. It just gets dark so late we went ahead and started the festivities early.



Chilling in the pool with Grant, Daddy, and Nana.






The boys and mom in the canoe.


The view from my seat, I liked the way Grant held onto his oar like that the entire time.


Grant is ready to go!
Boys ready to get in the canoe.


We have been trying to find ways to stay cool in these crazy 100+ degree days. On Friday, we took the boys canoeing at Town Lake and then to Barton Springs to swim. The boys LOVE the canoes and even Grant is still and quiet for the whole hour we are out. We had never been to Barton Springs before and have been wanting to experience the year round 68 degree temps that people seem to love. It was very cold but really felt good!










Also, on the 4th of July we went out to David's parents house because his sister, bro in law and our niece, Ella, were all there to celebrate. The boys had fun with the safe fireworks (sparklers, snakes, pop things).

We went on canoes a couple times last summer with Jeremiah and he loved it. We haven't been out this year. I can't wait until Davis can join us. What a fun family activity.
