More summer

It's gotten to the point where we can't really go outside anymore besides swimming. Yesterday was 118 and some meters read 121. Photos are from the last couple of weeks.

Uncle Joseph's basketball team. They won!

My dads bday was the 18th. He's 53!

Family date night at the Phoenix Art Museum

We've been wanting to see this exhibit, The Art of Video Games for months now. It was cool to see all the different consoles but we were disappointed overall. It wasn't what they had or didn't have...it's how they presented it. There was one part where I felt like I was out of this world and in a video game and that kind of made it all worth it. Have you heard of or played the game, Flower, for PS3? It's incredibly beautiful.

Science guy at the library. Cool volcanoes!
