Hot, Hot, Hot!!

Well, this week it sure warmed up here. Today was 106! But the first of the week was beautiful. We visited our garden on Tuesday and the evening was lovely. Wednesday night there was a Jimmy Buffett cover band, Stars on the Water- playing at a local venue we love called The Reef. It was a fund raiser for the American Cancer Society and the Treasure Valley Parrot Head Club was out en force to help support the cause. So we headed out to help and have a great time!

Thursday night I went to a neighbor's house for some drinks and one of those in house parties. We had a great time and I got to know some other neat ladies. Friday we didn't do much besides work and errands. Saturday is when it started to get really hot so we pretty much stayed inside until the evening. I wrapped Jay's presents and cleaned. The three of us played game after game of Aggravation!
Our friends Nicki and Chad had a party and since they live only on 36th street we rode our bikes over in the evening for that. It was a nice night and Cobi and I spent quite a bit of time chatting with both Nicki and Chad. The cool ride home was very pleasant.
Sunday we lounged around again as it was just too hot to go outside. In the evening Jordan and I attended a workshop by the Women's empowerment group to make body casts of our torso's for an upcoming art show in July. It is a pretty neat group of very supportive and interesting women that is organizing the art show. Now we will decorate them and present them during the evenings of July 26th and 27th in a garden setting for the show. It is much harder to come up with decoration of what your own embodiment is than everyone might think!

Tomorrow starts another week and we are excited for Jordan's birthday next weekend. We have some special suprise plans for her and will be sure to take and post pictures here of the festivities on the 4th and on her birthday. Hope you are all doing wonderful and staying much cooler than here in Boise!
