TEMPERATURE
High: 103
Yesterday started "BEAT THE HEAT" week at the Carroll house. Mommy decided we needed to be creative and have fun in this crazy summer weather! SO, for the next few days, we will document our blazing hot temperatures and share with you our ideas for staying cool! All we ask of you is that you write in and tell us how YOUR family beats the heat!
Drink plenty of COLD ice water whenever you are outside!
Get to the baseball park early (before 8:00 a.m.). It's cooler and you can have the place to yourself!
Take advantage of your sprinkler systems! Just make sure they are turned off before 10:00 a.m.! (Mommy learned about that the hard way!!)
Get a BIG new pool at Target (only $14.99) and convince your Daddy to swim with you!
Go to the covered park in McKinney (thanks for the tip Kara!) and you don't even have to put on sunscreen. YES!
Move any and all sports to the water ;)
If you do go to the park, go before 9:00 a.m. It's the ONLY time it's bearable!
Oh, and wear lightweight clothes and stay comfortable! You will have a "ball"~ :)

What great tips Porter! Sutton had his pad and pencil out taking notes while I read them to him! Today Sutton drove his car to storytime at Barnes and Noble and then made popcicles inside with orange juice!!! Can't wait to hear more beat the heat ideas!!!!
Thanks for the tips, Porter! We'll definitely be trying some of those out :) Love all the pics! Our fave way to stay cool is ice cream and playing at inside parks...like the mall (not creative, but it works!).
