it's hot. crazy hot.

and my sunflowers are the only ones who seem to like it.


we have been stuck inside all weekend.
everywhere i turn there is mess.
toys
wii controllers
barbie stuff
buzz and woody
balls
a football tackling dummy
elmo
blocks
cars
football
shoes everywhere.
i feel a little nutty just thinking that it wasn't there 20 minutes ago.
as soon as they are up, they blink their little eyes and POOF! there it is again.


so i continue to snap pictures of my beautiful sunflowers because really, who wants to see pictures of mess?

we snuck out yesterday afternoon for a swim and the water must have been 90 degrees.
i felt overheated being in it.
not refreshing at all.
john threw a football with the boys around 8pm.
they were disgusting, dripping with sweat, when they came in.
poor ben just wanted a drink of water and a bath. he was climbing in the tub before the water even started.


today's agenda? get this mess under control, maybe organize the downstairs linen closet (YUCK) and eat some jambalaya. i made it yesterday and it was yummo!


ok, enough of the sunflowers...i promise i'll try to take pics of the kids today.
but seriously, aren't these flowers happy little things??
