HOT HOT HOT!!!

it has been ridiculously HOT here lately! mid to high 90's + the humidity = a heat index in the 100's! it's unbearable to be outside during the day, but once it "cools down" (aka high 80's/low 90's) in the evenings, we've been playing with our water toys outside.

^ "don't even think about it little man!"

^ trevin sucking water into his water gun.

^ filling up the guns. trevin looks like he's doing some yoga pose. =)

^ "gonna get you daddy!"

^ unfortunately, simply dunking the gun in a bucket of water won't fill it up. sorry teagan.

^ waaaaay too close for comfort buddy!

^ apparently, the marines have taught shane little about cover and concealment. ;-)

^ a little better, shane, but they still found you!

^ yet another day outside. this time trayson's getting in on the fun!

^ trayson gets his very own splash pool. =)

^ but, of course, his brothers join him... even though they barely fit. =)

^ trayson really liked relaxing in the water.

^ as did teagan. =) trevin was off playing with his dump truck, dumping dirt into the big pool.

^ our first family photo since trayson's birth! and what a beautiful backdrop! =)
