Heat wave! The mercury almost topped 100°F this week. Dean's been wearing a kilt to work (sorry we forgot to take pix).

It's been such a dry Spring that the government is telling us to reduce our water consumption by 19% or face fines. The kids are doing their part by not flushing the toilet anymore (for #1) or taking baths (we're joking, sort of). Every little bit helps.

Lucie's taking guitar lessons next door at the Guitar Shop. Dean's had a nice guitar since college and hasn't played it much for years. She's rapidly getting better than him.

A first for Dean: he trimmed his mustache for the first time ever (rather than just shaving the whole thing off).
