Summer's End

Well it's supposed to be, but the heat continues here as usual. Please don't think I am ungrateful but I want it over. I seem to be saying the following an awful lot lately, 'no you can't go outside, it's too hot. Wait until later, when the sun starts to go away'. Bless Missy's understanding. The reply comes so easily - 'ok my Dede' and off she trots to do something else.
Oh and one other thing, the FLIES!!!! Oh my gosh, I'm so over them!!

We're still finding interesting ways to beat the heat at home.






Come in the rain Grandad


More water play. The Fairy and the Bumble Bee, using all the old paddling pool water for the plants.
Cadence has a little friend called Kyden. They have such a gorgeous little friendship. I love watching and hearing them play together.
