It's HOT HOT HOT

July in southern Texas is normally pretty hot but this year we have been experiencing 100 plus degrees every day and no rain. That has made it really hard for Levi to enjoy his big birthday present. A new 4-wheeler! 

This is battery operated, goes up to 10 miles per hour and is bigger than the regular little kids 4-wheeler. It's called a Razor Quad. Levi should be able to enjoy it for a couple of years before he outgrows it, and then it will be Ahren's turn. 

This 4-wheeler goes fast enough that we require levi to wear a helmet. Here he is in his bike helmet but Chris is getting him a real motocross helmet soon.
Ahren rides his tractor with Levi. It doesn't go nearly as fast which is a good thing. He never looks where he is driving and keeps running into things.

It rained yesterday for the first time in weeks and weeks. The kids got so excited that they made a break for it to play in the rain. I added baby soap and they all got a good shower.
Rain drops are falling on my head.... 
Here is the gang after the rain play. All wrapped up and drying off. Their hair was sooo soft!

Hi... Just a little pit stop to say hi... I see Levi is on a pit stop of his own waiting to get that bike back out side! Can you believe how much he is growning?

Well, I will chat more later... Been kind of keeping to myself these last few weeks. Lots going on. Will talk later about it.

Hugs and MISS YOU MORE THAN YOU EVEN KNOW!
