our bery hot weekend


We didn't end up taking the bus into town. Saturday, I decided to stay home and try to catch up on laundry--didn't happen since I forgot the quarters in the car. You know, the one Jeff drove to work. I think we went to the beach across the street. I honestly don't remember. Then, Amanda called with a plan to meet halfway for a beach day on Sunday. (In case you don't know, I live less than two hours away from 4 of my sisters but we have never met halfway, it's always all the way or nothing I guess.) It was hot, hot, hot! We went to a bay on Lake Superior and the water was really nice, just the perfect temperature to cool off and still be able to feel your toes! Emily was there with her family as well. I think Cale was pretty unimpressed with Adrian and his toddler ways. He was trying to dig a hole and Adrian was throwing tiny little fistfuls of sand back in. I guess Kendall was a better beach buddy, she didn't seem to notice when Adrian refilled her hole. We stayed to grill some burgers and shortly after that we heard thunder so we packed it up. It stormed the rest of the evening in our area.
Today, we have had rain on and off and it's pretty warm but we've stayed inside for the most part. I am supposed to be cleaning up the mess we made yesterday evening and catching up on laundry but to be honest, I haven't done much of anything. I have carnitas cooking on the stove for supper and Jeff is home from work! I think we just might hit that snail infested beach tonight. Or the gorgeous shores of Lake Superior. I'll let you know. ;)

Ah! I wish I would have went, but I was still all hyped up on hanging out with my new friends. The novelty has worn off now so if you guys do it again, I will for surely go. Or I should make a trip to visit you one of these weeks...
