While Daddy is Away...

The kids and I are doing fine. Well, I am desperately in need of adult converstation, and it doesn't help that most people on post are on vacation, but yes, we're doing fine. Edward will be gone for three weeks.

Luke and I have been playing some mean games of Hungry, Hungry Hippos in the evening.

The kids and I baked chocolate chip cookies yesterday afternoon.

I made breadsticks to go with our dinner.

I tried to wait until it "cooled off" to mow the backyard. I did get it mowed, but I don't think 109 is exactly chilly.

There it is from last night...I took this just after I finished mowing, 109. At 10:00 it was still 101, so it doesn't cool off here at night like you might hope.
