We survived another day of summer. Not enough sleep last night made it a longer than normal day. The kids had friends over
all day! I've started sending friends home at 6:00 when we have dinner and then I don't let them come back and try to keep my kids at home for the rest of the evening for family time. (Our house is often the "Kool-aid house" - the house on the block where everyone hangs out- although I never serve the neighbor kids kool-aid).
After dinner we drove up to the church and climbed up and over the hill that is behind it. It was a good hike for all of us, especially Brian who had just run 4 laps around the park. Once we got back to the church Brian drove Kylie and Bradley home while Brett, Bryce, Kim and I walked home. It was only 87 out so it was actually cool enough to go outside. It's nice to have a little reprieve from 110 degree weather!
