One Hot Summer Day

One of many actually.

We went to Cheekwood's Happily Ever After "Garden Experience" this week. Boy was it hot! The kind of hot where your shirt sticks to you as sweat rolls down your back. Who cares about that though when you can cross the Three Billy Goats Gruff bridge into the mouth of a troll (that cooks no less)?



Or climb Rapunzel's hair to the top of the tower?



Wait - here's the big bad wolf with a little piggy in its mouth:



We had a great time despite the heat. So much so that we were back the next night, getting our sweat on again.

Of course we can't have a week without a medical co-pay, so Maggie got a really nasty bug bite while there on her belly button that got infected. It was pretty yucky. She's now on an antibiotic cream for 5 days, and I clean gunky stuff out of her belly button with q-tips. With every swipe I think fondly of creepy little Rumpelstiltskin weaving straw into gold or that poor princess having to sleep on a pea.
