Fun in the Texas sun

Although the temperatures soared above 100 every day, we tried to get out early enough to enjoy some of the cool playgrounds. 
Aunt Leanna was volunteering with a group that does therapy with autistic children and horses. Eleanor was excited to ride with the horses- Katie took her there.
Look how much fun she had riding behind the horse!
Emerson just wanted to sleep and stay out of the sun, so Aunt Leanna wore him in the Ergo- doesn't she look ready for her own?
We met my friend, Melissa, from A&M at this sprayground in the Allen/Frisco area- Eleanor surprised me with her eagerness to get sprayed by the shooting spouts
Her girls, Amelia & Ainsley, were content to sit with Emerson and play with his toys. He is definitely a ladies' man :)
Look at her go!
Obviously, we found the best way to stay cool was to be in the water. Emerson stayed in the shade at the Southwest Park spray ground (it used to be a pool that I went to as a child all the time!)
He was not thrilled about the water spraying at him when he didn't expect it
Happy Eleanor & ready-to-go Emerson
What?! You are cold, Eleanor?! 
MaGa Gette was happy to join us in the water fun!
