The great outdoors, for a brief time

We spent a brief part of the morning outside. It was hot, but the kids were able to play in the shade. It's a good thing, too. We got to see butterflies (or maybe they were moths) resting on the carrots and cauliflower. We also were able to see some of the flowers that had just opened on our one and only stargazer lily out front. The inside of one flower was still damp from being closed.

As I write this the rest of our day is planned as follows: spend some time staying cool in the library and then maybe go to the YMCA for a workout. Spencer's been asking to hang out at child care and in the afternoon they pretty much have it to themselves.
