Here are a bunch of pictures from the last couple of weeks. With Maggie out of preschool for the summer, and the week-long stretch of 100-105 degree heat, the girls have been going kind of stir crazy. So I've been trying to get them out of the house in the mornings before the heat really kicks in, and we've been venturing out to both new and familiar places.

| last week we went to Historic Oak View County Park, which is a 19th century historic farmstead right outside of town...they have all kinds of stuff for kids to play with and climb on, including this old Ford tractor |

| juggling Uncle Sam on stilts...Maggie didn't even comment on his costume or the fact that he was 8 feet tall, only that he was juggling |

| this morning I took the girls to Pullen Park for about an hour or so...just enough time to ride the train and carousel |

Looks like fun. I am jealous of the 4th of July parade. I wish that they did something like that around here.
