Heat Wave

We went from nice cool weather with the perfect mixture of sun and rain to a heat wave with high humidity and no rain. My husband came home to this lovely weather and roasted. We have since gotten some more fans for the windows which does help some. I am thankful that at least when the son goes down behind the mountain it cools off nicely with all the fans blowing. I only wish we would have purchased them while he was home so he could have been a bit more comfortable. Sorry honey. The kids have spent so much time in their pool that I believe they are growing flippers! At least they have enjoyed this heat. My garden and I is looking dry and I am looking forward to some much needed rain they are promising next week. Until then we will have to eat more Popsicles and snow cones in attempt at staying cool. We did enjoy getting to spend some time together as a family this past week and are looking forward to next months home time. Until then we are busy with church activities, visiting family, exploring our town and just enjoying the summer. Of course the garden is a priority and so far it is doing well. I can't wait to eat the yummy cucumbers and tomatoes! The corn on the cob is a huge hit at our house too. The beans will be ready to can in a few more weeks so we will be plenty busy. We only have another month and a few weeks before school starts back up and football season begins. Summer sure does fly. I best go make the best of it. It is game night and we are getting ready to eat our pizza and play a game. At least my dough rises well in this heat. :)
