September 5

The temperature soared to 114 degrees today --which was, incidentally, the hottest temp I've felt since I was nine months pregnant with Logan back in 2006-- so the bros spent most of the afternoon in the pool.

And by "most of the afternoon" I mean a whopping five hours. And then they ate dinner outside on the deck, too. I took them ice cream cones at one point, so here they are enjoying their treat.

I know that it's hard to find ways to stay comfortable when it's this kind of hot out, so I'm grateful to have a pool. And I'm grateful for these goofballs who made such good use of it today.
