Excessive HEAT Warning...


If you live in Kansas, you know that the last few days have been full of EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNINGS! Many days over 100 degrees actual temps with 110+ degree heat indexes. This combined with little to no rain has meant we're having a hard time keeping our grass alive! While Daddy has been out of town, Ellie and my job has been watering the grass and flowers early in the morning and later in the evenings. Well, yesterday Ellie decided we should water in the middle of the day, too! It was a great reason to get her outside and she loves to "help"... So here she is in action...watering one of the dead spots in our grass!

If you know Ellie, she hates to be dirty! I can almost here her saying in the above pic "Mommy, TOWEL!" which means "please come get this dirt off of my hand!"
She has actually been doing a great job watering and also pulling weeds... She's my right hand lady in the yard!
We're having lots of fun on these hot summer Kansas days!
