Hot and dry

Its been really hot, so hot that the Littles don't even want to go in the baby pool, so hot that clothes are optional and sweaty hair the norm. Papa was away this week so we had a Granddad date and had odd play activities such as playing with all the winter hats in air conditioning and eating kefir popsicles in the tub. Our vegetables are a bit of a bust once again. Black walnut trees and gardens = no! But we've been enjoying the CSA farm we joined and are loving the farm stand produce.  We picked our first (and perhaps only) tomato from our plants today. The girls held it as if it was gold. Maybe it is.
