109 degrees...
at 11 am today. Yes, it's going to be a hot one! This is our 3rd or 4th day over 110. And it's still technically spring! I am not complaining at all; I like the heat. It just takes a few days to switch the schedule around, plan outings in the morning before it gets too hot & hunker down in the afternoon; either in the house or in the pool.
Today we will probably stay in as my daughter has her 2nd night of VBS so it will be good to relax and not get too tired out in the heat. Their VBS is from 5:30-8:30. Not my first choice but I am not running it (nor do I want to!) She did great last night though. She did swim yesterday and Sunday was mostly a swimming day so she was beat by yesterday afternoon. I half thought that I would find her sleeping in the corner when I went to pick her up last night but she was dancing and singing away. They were told to bring their swimsuits tonight for some water fun.
We had company this weekend. Our friends have 2 boys, age 7 & 10, so my daughter was in 7th heaven having company. They spent the night with us and their parents spent the night at my parents' house. It was fun having 3 kids for a night. They were so sweet and well behaved. Of course, as we all do, their parents asked us how they behaved. I always feel like it shows good parenting when you can send your kids to someone else's house and they are angels - even if it isn't always like that at home. :)
I am still super swamped but wanted to write a few things on my blog before lunch today; otherwise I may forget it all...

I don't think I want 109, but 70's sure would be nice :0) My girlfriend who lives in AZ (Awatookee) is heading up here soon. They come up every summer to escape the heat. I hope they get at least a little sunshine :0)
