Just about everyone in the country has been going through a crazy heat wave...not very good timing for this new mommy to 2. Marie has been spending a lot of time in the house since Benett can't be outside as much as she can. Top that off with Andy with at work much of the time and a dog very annoyed with the random fireworks going off the whole month of July and you have some stir crazy Muetings! Luckily, we have had some visitors and other fun events to take our mind off of things.
Don and Jean visited us on the 4th. They spent quality time with the kids while Bella and Charlie played and napped together.
That evening we watched fireworks and enjoyed sparklers in the backyard.
We have also been spending a lot of time running through the sprinkler and playing with our water toys in the backyard.
Sioux City had a mardi gras parade on one of the hottest evenings. We packed a bunch of water and headed downtown - Marie loved catching all the beads while Andy stayed in the shade with Bennett and some friends of his from the residency program.
Even Bennett got into the mardi gras spirit with his beads!
Following the parade we enjoyed some delicious frozen yogurt to help us cool down.
