Outdoor play

Here are some pictures of our outdoor activities recently. We've been playing outside most every day, despite the heat, but have limited out time to early AM and before bed. Today we were able to be outside much more, though, so we had great fun being outside without sweating horribly and suffering through high humidity. Sam doesn't mind the heat much (since he likes being sweaty...), but the rest of us would rather avoid it. Abby has also started riding in the wagon which has been great fun. I'm looking forward to taking all the kids to the park in the wagon soon.

 Sam gets jealous of all the pictures I/we take of Abby and wanted to be the focus of our attention so he sat right between Abby and I. He takes good pictures too and at least he's getting away from the fake smile these days.

 The kids were watching the train across the road.

And here I was practicing my photography using some of the lisianthus from the garden.
