Another beautiful hot summer day here. Was already warm by morning, so we took the kids over to the lake, got there about 10:30 am. They had lots of fun splashing around. The water was just perfect. Sun nice and hot. A bit too hot for the sand by the playground. Hanna was walking on it and it kinda burned her feet and she cried. John was out in the water a lot. We took them both around on their new floaty toys.

Then, we headed home and stopped at a little vegetable stand someone had set up in the parking lot of that gas station on Lexington. We got some tomatoes, cucumbers and onions for a good price. At home I fired up the grill and we had hamburgers and hot dogs, with some slices of our fresh tomatoes and onions on the burgers. Mmmm. The kids gobbled up a lot of fruit, too.

So, just got them down for their nap. Their tuckered out. I got some stuff to finish up for my writing group meeting tonight. I told John he could go to the car wash with me when he wakes up. He won't forget! I gotta take the grass to the dump, too.

Lately John has been working on the art of giving something else to Hanna if she has something he wants. He'll bring something up to her and say "Hanna, you can have this" and then take what she has. Usually she'll take what John gives her and get distracted with that. Ha.
