What summer is all about!

Summer is in full swing at our house. It's hot, it's humid, the kids are out of school and we're spending lots of time doing fun outdoor activities.
It's not really summer until you break out the sprinkler for a fun afternoon. This day was great. It was starting to get shady on this side of the house. I set up the sprinkler so it would get the garden at the same time, and the kids just loved it.

An afternoon at the park. Since we didn't have the swing set up yet we took the kids to the park for a picnic and some playtime.

More water fun. I bought this pool last year on a ridiculous sale and the kids just love it.
We decided to roast marshmallows one night in the backyard. The coals weren't really hot enough but we had fun trying anyway. Rachael especially enjoyed the treat as you can tell by how much of the chocolate she is wearing. She loved every minute of it, and then went straight to the bathtub.
