The weather around here has been brutal as was most of the country the last couple of days or so. So what we did to beat the heat was to stay inside and feel blessed to have air-conditioning. The pool has been a great spot to hang out at this summer but lately even that has been to hot to go to. Crazy to think that it is too hot to go to the pool but with the air quality in the red zone we really had no choice if we want to be healthy. Its going to get cooler this week and we hope to continue are pool outings and summer cookouts. Next week the guys are at Bible camp with our church so that will be a nice little break for me to hit the gym again and some much needed me time. We are having a great summer and hope you are as well.

WV Trip
On a whim we decided to go to the Canaan Valley in West Virginia. It was going to be a very hot weekend to be in the DC area so we decided to go and explore the mountains. The drive was very scenic and went fast so the boys were in good spirits mostly and those of you with kids get the idea. I took lots of pic for you all to enjoy. We are having a great summer and hope everyone else is too.

Horse Ride
It is nice to have friends in cool places such as my friend Kara. She is an old friend of mine and she invited my family to her Horse farm out in the beautiful Va country side. Alex and Joshua were all keyed up to go as we had to cancel our first attempt due to a sick kiddo. So with that the boys were bouncing off the walls to go and be like a real cowboy. Even my beautiful wonderful wify got to go for a ride on Pewter which is a really nice gentle horse. Alex was a bit nervous but got on first and seemed to love every minute of it. Joshua was next and he too was a bit nervous at first but then had a really good time. The boys were a bit taken back as to the size of a real horse so it was really good to get them exposed to them up close. Kara has a really fine facility that she runs and it was a real treat to go and see it all. The kids have lots to tell their friends as many of their friends don’t get a chance to ride a full size horse. Here are a few pics of the outing.
