The Heat is On!

Our temperatures have finally hit the 90s (much to our dismay), so that means that the younger set is keeping cool by frolicking in the water. It's fun to see them having a good time doing the things we remember from our childhood. Wading pools and running through the sprinkler have not lost their allure! We are also thankful for our pool here in Ammon. What a lifesaver! The prices are reasonable, it's well kept, and there are plenty of lifeguards. What a jewel! Bailee has been having a great time with next door neighbors Abby and Bree.



We cashed in some of our Amazon Reward Points this week for some Corelle dishes, books, and shoes (yes, we've been saving up for some time). The shipment arrived packed in bubble wrap, which still is a source of wild excitement to Bales. She took it upon herself to craft a bubble wrap ensemble. It doesn't look TOO much different from what we now see on the red carpet at Hollywood premiers! Is that scary or what? The best part was when she rolled all over the house trying to pop the dress. It was hilarious! The animal members of the house thought she was insane, and Hadlee retreated in terror under the furniture.



Despite the heat, Bailee was determined to make and frost her first layer cake. She had a great time, and developed an interested lavender frosting. It was quite the intense scientific process. I think she did pretty well for a beginner! Like her grandmother, she loves to cook.
