IS IT SUMMER ALREADY????

It was a hot day today, in the nineties. Cold to instant HOT, HOT.....what happen to spring??? The kids wanted to know when they could go to the pool. Sad to say they don't open for a while. So we did the next best thing and set up the sprinkler. What a difference from last year. Becca, who wouldn't go near any cold water last year was running in and out having a blast. Brayden was the one not going in because it was too cold, although he did think it was pretty funny to sit on the sprinkler. Somehow I ended up at the zoo today. I vaguely remember telling myself last year or the year before that the zoo was off limits once the heat kicked in and if school was still in session. Guess I didn't learn my lesson because once again I found myself dragging a couple very hot and crabby kids through mobs of school kids, sweating buckets....not my idea of a good time. Although, thankfully we were with a group of friends making it durable. Hopefully I can remember for next year!


This is where the kids love to play-such a mess but very entertaining.

Becca loves the sprinkler, she would run through and just scream and giggle

This is all Brayden liked doing, besides trying to get water in a cup to make mud...such a boy.

Why do they always have to try to drink the water??

This is where Andrea spent a good portion of her time, at a distance watching her crazy siblings.
