So hot that when we got up in the morning and plonked the kids in the pool and made them swim until they couldn’t anymore!!! Then we stayed indoors all day until it was marginally cooler, [...]

The summer is relentless and we are loving it!!!
This describes our week: unpacking and playing and mixing and sorting…

We did some arting:
