Hangin' at the River



It's been so hot here in Heathenville that, in the interest of self-preservation, we took the kids to the river last night. I've never been swimming in a river before (and I still haven't LOL), but it was nice. We went with friends and had a little barbecue (turned those burgers with a stick since no one thought to bring a spatula). The kids had a fantastic time and Aaron only needed to be rescued once. Within minutes of getting into the water, Aaron had gone out over his head. Mike had to jump in, fully clothed, and save his little behind. He coughed up a little water and Mike asked him if he was okay. "I'm fine. Put me down," Aaron responded. Then he was back in the water, thankfully a little more aware of his limitations. We stayed until dusk and came home to a much cooler house. It's 10:30 am now and the boys are both still sleeping. I'll be surprised if they wake up before 1 today since they were so tired last night.
