Water Slides and Red Meringues

Another week gone.  I feel like time is flying so quickly.  We're past the halfway point now.  Work was pretty uneventful this week, but it has been HOT outside, up to 27-28 degrees (~83 degrees fahrenheit) and muggy.  Apparently, this is about 5 degrees hotter than usual at this time of year here.  Thankfully the little heaters that we have in individual offices at work and in our house double as air conditioners so I can stay pretty cool until I venture outside.  Liza has transitioned to a walking hard-soled shoe, which has made life much easier for her.  It took all week for her to get used to walking on that foot again since it was pretty weak and felt like jello at first.

I worked the Saturday morning clinic and Liza went to an all-day birthday party of one of her friends.  After work, Blake and I decided to invite one of his friends to the indoor pool in a local town.  We picked Ryan up from his house and I recorded the below on the way (completely safely).


We spent a couple hours up there, me knitting and reading and they and sliding on the "hydroslide" and wrestling in the water.


Today, Liza's friend Ashley came over and the girls decided to make meringues, which they dyed red with food coloring.

Now that they are in the oven, they have gone into town to buy popsicles or ice cream and I am in charge of the meringues.  They look a little flat, so we'll have to see how they turn out when we taste them.
