Visitors from outer state

Dave's parents came to visit us this week from South Carolina. Since Joshua's school was closed Monday and Tuesday, Dave and I took those days off and were able to enjoy their visit while enjoying a couple days off work. It just so happened that their visit coincided with the hottest days of the year. With the heat index reaching 118 one day, we tried to keep our outings few and brief.

We ventured out to play t-ball one morning...


Aunt Gay and Gully sent Joshua a cool new swimming pool. Joshua was not the only one who cooled off in it Sunday afternoon. (Thanks Aunt Gay and Gully!!!)

After a dip in the pool there is always time for swinging.



We ate cupcakes to celebrate Buddy's birthday.




Joshua had a fun time with Gran and Buddy. We are thankful they came to see us.

On an unrelated note, Joshua started back to school today and Ms. Rosemary's class could not have been more fun. The first day of napping on a cot seems to have gone ok. His care card said he slept an hour and twenty minutes. I didn't get to talk to Ms. Rosemary this afternoon to know how the cot worked out but I am anxious to get the scoop in the morning.
