Red Hot!

It is Summer in Spokane!  It is officially 100 degrees.  We have beat the heat the last couple of days by visiting lakes and/or playing in the backyard.  Yesterday we headed to Liberty Lake County Park and the kids swam and swam.  My little Ellie Bellie was the first to swim out to the dock and jump off.  She is fearless, she reminds me of myself when I was young.  That is her with the life jacket a foot shorter than everyone else on the dock.

                                       We have also been playing in our blow up pool.

                                                               Dani as happy as can be.

Today we headed to Lake Couer d' Alene and met Kent's family there.  We played in the sand, swam in the lake and ate snacks for a fun four hours.  Finally, the 100 degrees sent us packing to our A/C.  It was a perfect lake day.  Today was also the day for my sprint tri, I am in mourning that I wasn't there to compete, but my friend Steph was able to, and she said all went well.  Hopefully next year I will be a Valley Girl Competitor!
