White Trash Summer

We have been hitting the pool pretty hard this summer. We go down to the Peay’s at least once a week. We also go over to our friend’s backyard to their above ground pool. Me and my friend sit in camp chairs and yell at the kids. It’s a pretty sweet set up.


As part of our house renovation we did an addition. It is not hooked up to the HVAC of the house. It has a minisplit that never worked. In the winter we use a space heater. In the summer we die. This week I had enough. I decided to create a ghetto vent from the bathroom into our bedroom using tape and plastic. It even got an upgrade with a little fan taped into the system. I would say it has helped 5%. So disappointing.

Branton was replacing his breaks and needed some shade. I improvised this tent with a bed sheet.

At the end of every school year our neighborhood does a summer kickoff party. There are 4 bounce houses, horse rides, balloon animals, face painting, cotton candy (done by me), cake walk, character appearances, water balloon fight etc. It’s amazing. We have such a great neighborhood.
