Weekend Update

It was hot. Very hot.
Saturday we went out to Twin Lakes park for Tim's work picnic. Thankfully they had some fans set up at the pavilion which made being outside very tolerable. Of course our kids wanted to be out in the sun where the bounce houses were, so that is where we were. 3 hours, 1 outfit change for Megan due to an effort to eat a Push-Up in 100 degree weather and we were on our way home with crashing kids.
Sunday we decided to do some art projects in the garage before it got really hot.


This is pretty much the before shot - before the arguing over sharing paint, Megan not painting on Abby's board, etc. There is no after photos since I had to clean off some messy kids.


Megan was figuring things out. In the end the paintings are just one big gray area because I said to put paint everywhere, and they did. Megan was going through her "pink paint" phase.

This photo is more for my family as this blanket was from my Grandma Powers'. Abby pretty much refuses to sleep with anything else. I had her covered up and had the blanket on top and you can see she has kicked all the covers down and is sleeping just with her "Great Grandma Powers blanket".

The heat definitely takes a lot of the girls and us. This weekend is Suellen's bridal/bachelorette party in Columbia.
