#ulog 11: The First Week of Summer Vacation With My Boys is Bubbling With Awesome

I'm super blessed to be able to stay at home...

And even though sometimes there are challenges (like breaking up 20 fights a day), most of the time Kiedis, Stryder and I just utterly chill and enjoy every drop of sunshine, water, and freezy that there is. Bring it on!

Don't forget the bubbles...

It's Freezy Season

These are the huge ones, they don't get these every day, but they do get a little freezy every day. A great way to cool down, and then when they are hyper from the sugar, they can just wear themselves out running around outside or playing in the ocean.

@alivefoxdeadfox is a very serious freezy eater.

They just look so sweet in that photo...

@hendrix22 & I Devised A New Way to Cook Buns in the Summer...

No more having the oven on heating the house up, the barbeque worked like a charm. Yes there is a little burned edge on a couple and those are mine damnit 😂 I love slightly burned bread products. My only question is why the hell didn't we think of this sooner?

I Keep Forgetting to Tell You Guys...

My little trooper of an orchid bloomed! The stem isn't very long, but she did it b'ys!

Perfection

Okay, While I'm Showing You Flowers I May As Well Take You Outside 😍...

The very first cosmo. My favourite flowers, sometimes they can reach up to 10 feet tall. This one is a super tiny early bloomer, I love it!

A wild pansy growing in my cosmo/sunflower/pea/poppy jungle, I'll take it! What a lovely volunteer 💚

A Lot of Flowers Blooming at the Church Too

The Bestest Part of Summer

The ocean in our backyard.

Endless fun for boys.

Swimming & basking on the warm rocks.

And Edgar Joins Us For Picnics & Relaxing in the Shade

In between hunting expeditions of course...🐀

I'll Leave You With A Video

The boys playing the game of who can go in deeper and is brave enough to swim. This is the routine every time we get down there. They're always so afraid to get wet at first and once they finally get in you can't get em out.

Love your jungle of flowers! My neighbour calls mine Jurassic Park! LOL Glad to see the boys having so much fun. How is the water? Col? Here the Pacific right now is about 28 degrees. The weather has been really hot. We are at 115 today with the humidex. Should have asked Mama Castor how she cooks these days. My kitchen is much too hot to cook in (for this many people) so I do everything on the BBQ or over an open fire or a pit with coals. At least the heat is outside! Try baking the bread up a few more inches from the flame. Then the bottom won't burn. I too like the toasted bits but not everyone does! Happy to see Edgar out and about enjoying life again...
