This summer has been a hot one and that comes as no surprise to us all... We love it! There are definitely some things to remember when we are out and about in this heat, especially with our kids... both furry and not! Here are five things to remember as you are our and about:

1. Make sure everyone is fully hydrated at all times

I know it is time for sunshine, tan lines, and margaritas... just have some water with that tequila!

2. DO NOT leave your children and pets in the car!

This is completely serious guys! I have seen too many people leave their pets and children in their cars lately; it is just too hot for that and dangerous! I recommend taking them in with you wherever you are parked, but if you have to leave them in there, make sure the doors are locked, your car is in eye-sight and leave the air on!

3. Wear sunscreen when you are outside or at the beach. Even laying out! You don't want to get burnt.

Nothing hurts worse than a sunburn and burn lines aren't fun either! I recommend lots of sunscreen; you will still get tan!

4. If you DO get burnt from the sun, soak in vinegar!

Add bubbles too! Vinegar helps take the stinging and burning sensation away. Aloe Vera is also your best friend in these types of situations!

5. Get in the pool and enjoy the rest of summer!

Enjoy it while you can and stay wet! It is never too hot in the pool!
