We told Spencer, months ago, that after the Illinois trip he could get his snake or frogs. I don't remember how it was that he decided on frogs - perhaps parental influence. We went to a park yesterday and a frog found Spencer. The frog may have changed it's mind when Spencer grabbed it because it jumped into the water and waited for Shanelle to go in the water and get it. The frog is now home with us and dining on worms.
I started brewing some 'stupid hot' chili this morning and then the boys and I left for Windsor. Yes, even though it is in the 90's - I love chili. Windsor Lake has a beach and play area. I didn't take any pictures but we did have a good time. We swam in the lake for a while and then took a break to play at the park and have snacks. We went back to the lake and swam some more but then had to quit around 6p due to rain. Good times.
We got home and Shanelle had stewed tomatoes - I made my chili a few hours too early! I don't think that I've had 'stupid hot' chili with stewed tomatoes from the garden for about 20 years. This is some fine chili but especially looking forward to next weekend for a pot with tomatoes from our garden! :)

You almost brought me to tears -- stewed garden tomatoes!! Oh! You have to brew up another pot!
Jer, be very super nice to Sha so she'll photo document for you. The world needs to see the next generation of chili making in full color. The world needs to see men cooking for their family (unless it is 'stupid hot' chili which no sensible taste bud should take in, but it is balanced by the having garden tomatoes.)
Looking forward to next weekend.
