Backyard fun, magnified

Breaking news.... it's the middle of August, and today's high is only predicted to be 90º!!!

This morning the I took the kids to the park to enjoy a relatively cool morning, and then we came home for lunch. They had a backyard picnic, and then played some more. The have a couple of new toys: binoculars and a magnifying glass, and they took both outside for some fun!

Can you believe this? (And isn't it sad that I find this so exciting??)

Keeley's turn with the magnifying glass. It almost hurts to see beauty magnified like this, doesn't it? :D
