A day at the lake

Since it was so hot today--in the 90s!--we decided to go to the lake. Everyone had such a great time! Lochy is my little water baby and we couldn't get him out even though it was freezing! My feet and legs ached just standing in there with him and he didn't even seem to notice how cold it was. He did the same thing yesterday when we set up the little pool. Liam wants no parts of cold water and only dipped his toes in but Lochy was having a grand time!

They got to play in the sand a lot too which is always a big hit with them. Of course we had to bring some of our trains along with our sand toys. We have a few that are in not the greatest shape from being played with in the dirt, mud, water, sand, etc. You name it those trains have been through it!

There's a couple playgrounds there too that they had a great time playing on. Unfortunately there was no shade at the playground areas so everything was pretty hot. When are people going to learn to plant some trees or something around play equipment so these little guys don't burn their hands and legs playing?

After a few hours they were ready to come home though. They were so tired, especially since they didn't have a nap but they didn't sleep on the way home at all! Needless to say it was an early night for them!

And when we first got home. They're vegging out to "Lady and the Tramp."
