We had a busy weekend. Matthew went with my parents to the Scottish festival in Arlington on Saturday. My dad loves all things Scottish and this annual festival is one of the highlights of his summers. We haven't been in a few years and had plans this weekend, so Matthew got to join my parents. They had a fabulous time! Matthew danced the Highland fling for 10 minutes straight while a scottish fiddler played. He also got to do the log toss simular to the ones in the Highland games. Mom and Dad said he never got tired and had the time of his life. I wish I could have seen it!
We stayed here and had Bryon's sister, brother-in-law, and niece come for a visit. Bryons BIL is very handy around the house and came up to help Bryon fix our fence, wood floor in the office, and work station in the garage. Shari and I took the kids to the zoo. Following SG's advise, we took a match box car to the otter tank and Thomas got the otter to follow the car for a long time. We shared the car with several eager children and had a good time! We only got through half of the zoo before it was too hot to go on. We are in for a long, hot summer!
Matthew starts Upwards Basketball camp today. The camp is at our church and lots of kids from the community are going. It should be fun!
Keep your fingers crossed that our house cools down today!

It is a good sign that they came out this morning and did not leave you waiting all day for them to show up. I hope they have things cooled off for you shortly! Loved the otter picture both on your site and the ones on SG's. Here's wishing you a cooler week!
I had to laugh at the otter picture! Rhett was wearing the exact same shirt when we went. :) Glad it is cooler!
