Blamin' it on the Heat Wave

As you've noticed I haven't been all that active here lately...  I really don't feel like doing anything as a matter of fact.  I wake in the morning - and I'm hot.  I go to work - and I'm hot.  I come home - and I'm hot.  Therefore, I must do as little as possible to conserve my energy  ;)  I've always liked summers, but the older I get the less I like them.  I attribute this to not being able to spend every waking moment at the pool during the summers :(

Over the last few weeks we've been very busy despite the heat.  Renelle, Kip & Baby Liam came to visit!  They are on their way cross country to their next station.  Kip is in the army and he just finished up his Master's work in Texas - way to go Kip!  Now they are North Carolina bound.  On their way they got to spend a week in Kansas.

The first weekend Kip, Renelle, Randine and the Husband all ran a 5K together - I got out of running by working it!

Hi Liam!
Look at that form!
Stridin' Out
Workin' hard for a Living

Everyone finished it one piece and Kip even won his age division.

Look at that crew!


Baby Liam got to hang with G-mom & G-dad around the course.  Such a happy baby!


The next day we all went to the Royals Game... in the MIDDLE OF THE DAY.

Liam got to stay at Randine's apartment with G-mom due to the EXTREME HEAT!!

We had two different sets of tickets - turns out that one set was IN the DugOut!  Of course there were only 4 tickets there and the other 3 were else where.  So we decided to trade spots half way through... turns out the security guy woke up on the wrong side of the bed that day and wouldn't allow that!  So Randine, Tray, Kip & Renelle got to sit in the dug out for a while - which ended up being DIRECTLY in the sun while the Husband, Bill & I sat in the shade with a nice breeze :).  (Gotta pump up those shade seats somehow!)  Ended up everyone was sitting in the shady seats by the end of the game!
Afterwards, we all headed to get our grub on with some BBQ.  I'm not a big fan of BBQ, however when I'm hungry I'll eat about anything and I must say this was pretty good!

The next weekend, G-mom and G-dad got to hang with Liam again the rest of the gang went to the Dinner Theater to see Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat - whew that was a mouth full.  I had never seen it, I think everyone else had - in fact the Husband was the Pharaoh in his High School Musical - I'm sure he would have totally shown up this guy :).  It was really good and the food wasn't too shabby either!

This week I'm helping with VBS at church.  When I agreed to do this I hadn't totally thought this through.  I start my day at around 7:30 with my last patient, then I might get a lunch hour half-hour, then I finish out the afternoon - hoping to end by 5:30, so I can stuff my face as I race across town to the church.  Then I spend the next two hours with hyped 4 & 5 year olds...  LONG DAY!  Yesterday was a little overwhelming, but today we were in a better routine, so it was much better.  Overall it's been really fun - but MAN AM I TIRED!  Apparently Miss B feels she is feeling left out...

Or maybe she is just mad...

 Hope you are all having a great week!
