Baby It's Hot Outside

This is my Truman. He is a sweet boy.




Last friday was the maiden voyage of the new outdoor oven at mom and dad's house. What a better way to spend a 100+ degree friday night than to start an 800 degree fire and bake some pizzas!


Dad checking the temperature.

Christening the oven with a bottle of beer Travis made.




The first pizza goes in!



Perfection!    
Saturday was a busy but great day. I had a group tour of the Kansas Explorers Club then it was the beer tasting at the arts center in the evening. Then I had to work on Sunday at the Big Well Museum. I am looking forward to having wednesday off for the 4th of July and I am taking off friday. Ashley, Alana and I are having a girls getaway weekend to KC. I can't wait! I am so excited to spend time with them and with Hollie and Michael.

Apricots

 Last night we went to to the Schmidt's farm to pick apricots and a few apples. The Lawsons were there too, it was good to spend some time with them and Joel. After we left there, we drove up north of town to see if there are any sand hill plums at Grandma Cretia's and Uncle Warren's places. There are a bunch and will be ready soon.
There were some apples too, but they were very tart. Tru liked it though.



This dog's name is Honey. It was so sweet to hear Amelia talking to her and saying Honey.

Today was a pretty nice Saturday, except for Travis and I both having to work. He worked in the morning and I did in the afternoon at the Big Well Museum. It was a very busy day at the museum, we did very well. In the morning the kids and I had breakfast, watched tv (Amelia is really into the Fresh Beat Band right now) and did housework. Travis took these pictures of her with all of her animals lined up on the couch.

Tonight Ray and Pat had us, mom and dad and Marie out for prime rib. It was so good and a beautiful evening outside. I took each of the kids for a 4 wheeler ride while Travis, Ray and Marie went and shot.
