HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
Wishing all Dads and Grandads a very happy day wherever you are. Hope you enjoy it and get spoiled.
Well, I feel like a slowly melting candle! Mike has had a nice Father's Day so far. He is now equipped with enough clothes to last him until this time next year.
We have spent most of the weekend with Becky, Dean and Nathan. They have now left to go and visit and have a BBQ with Dean's Dad, Mum and Sisters.
This is how my wonderful family have been spending the time. Firstly, three men and a pool:-
Where was I, I hear you ask. Well, I was taking the photographs and by the time I had stood outside in the heat long enough to get these shots (and many more), I could not stand it any longer and had to come back indoors where I stayed in a cool room until the family came back indoors. Then I spent quite a time playing with Nathan. After "swimming", being on his swing, pushing his truck and crawling all over the place, he was one tired little boy when he left.
Before I have to face watering the garden this evening (storms are forecast but you cannot always rely on them and you can never have too much water), I am going to take myself off to my cool room again. I have a giant book of ghost stories that I am going to start reading.
Then Ishall be slaving over a hot cooker making Fajitas for our evening meal. At least I have got out of the preparation. Dean used to be a chef so whilst he was here he thinly sliced all the chicken, peppers and onions for me - and all without being asked - what an angel that boy is. Still got to stand there frying it all though. Pass me a wet towel somebody!

Lovely,lovely photos Jeannette!LOL at those cool dudes in the pool!!Its not often we get this heat and I think I am glad in a way.I know,I know it sounds miserable but I am melting too!!I do like the cooler evenings in the garden though.We are having dinner al fresco today,chicken and salad and crusty bread and ice cream too! No pool for us though,have to do with a spray of magicool!
Great photos thanks for sharing them - do you think I could have a go in that pool?? It's tooooooooo hot...............so I'm just having a lazy day today - don't blame you for going to a cool room to read :-)
What great pictures of everyone in the pool!
Happy Father's Day!!
New book sounds interesting...

I'm glad you have a cool room indoors anyway - somewhere you can collapse in and recover! I think you're wise to do plenty of watering, whatever the forecasters say. The plants need water badly at the moment - especially at this time of year. Lovely pics, by the way - great fun by the look of things.

Lovely pics Jeannette, what I would give to come sit in that pool!!
Happy Fathers Day to Mike, and Dean of course.
Hope this heat doesn't last much longer, we want sunshine, but we'd like a nice cool breeze with it!

Knows how you feel Jeannette, slowly melting too. They all love that pool don't they, wonderful pictures.~xxR
Aww! These photos are great! Love the pool. I need to get a larger one for Ty.
Hope it cools off soon, the men look like they had fun! Linda
They all look lovely and cool in the water Jeannette. I think a pool would be great just for me and Jim if they haven`t sold out everywhere. We don`t have a cool room in our house so I`ve just been trying to do nothing in case I melt away completely! LOL...;-)
