Happy 4th of July!! It has been a HOT HOT week in Minnesota. While I am thankful for the warm weather, I am not acclimated to it like I was when we lived in Arkansas. I never had children to play with outdoors when I lived in Arkansas either so I really didn't appreciate weather as much as I do now. When the temperatures get above 85-90 degrees or so, the slides and things at the park are too hot to enjoy. It really is not much fun (for me or the boys) to play outdoors when the temperatures reach 100 degrees like they did this week. So, what did we do most of the week? We played in the water. We did water balloons, water sprinklers, the pool, the slip-n-slide, and then topped it off with a trip to a water park on the 4th of July. We went to a very small aquatic center with a water slide, huge sandbox, and other fun water sprinklers. The boys loved it. Luke was so excited that he was tall enough to ride the water slide in a tube by himself. Liam was lacking about 1-2 inches to be able to do the slide alone, but he enjoyed riding with John and I. Aiden even rode the water slide a few times.

AJ and his new bike helmet. It kind of fits his fierce personality.
