On to Week 4 of Summer Vacation

Three weeks have flown by already! And we are already a week into July??? How can that be?

We have been enjoying the amazing weather this last week! Beautiful, although a little warm for my Pacific Northwest blood. I was born and raised here, I don't do hot. I do 70s, not the 80s and 90s we had last week. It might be different if we had A/C, but we don't. We have fans. Five of them. When if finally came back into the 70s on Saturday, I was cold. Like sweatshirt and jeans cold. It is still in the 70s, but feels just wonderful now.

Big Daddy had the last week off and it was so nice having him home. We didn't do a lot at the beginning of the week because it was just too hot to move. We went to see Mr. Popper's Penguins with the kids and at the end of the week we went to the Woodland Park Zoo.

We have been looking at pianos a lot because Lovey is at the point in his lessons where he needs a piano. One company was closing one of the stores, so we went to check it out, but we didn't find anything we liked. We went to a local store and showed Big Daddy the piano Lovey and I liked. It is more than we planned on spending, so we went home to make sure that it was doable still. It was, so we called the store on Friday (we knew they were closed for 4th of July) and they had sold the piano that morning. Grrr.... Now we are back to square one. Boo.

It looks like more nice weather this week, so maybe the kids and I might head to a local beach and look for shells. We didn't collect any last year and Littlebit thinks we need some more.
