Fun in our own Backyard

We have had some fun since being home. Sunday night we got together for family dinner with the Waites and Blackwells. The weather was nice and the kids really wanted to go outside. So we let them all go to town...forgetting that it had rained and there was water sitting in most of the toys. There was a nice amount of water in the wagon-which quickly turned to mud as the big kids added dirt. Tyler found his way right over when he heard water and started splashing around like it was the coolest bath he had ever had. He was covered head to toe (in his church outfit) in mud. He had a blast and we just stripped him down to his onesie and enjoyed a real bath that night.

Tonight we had the Waites over for dinner. Again, the weather was nice and the kids all wanted outside to play in the little pool we had set up...so, being the coolest parents ever we all just strip 'em down and let them play. The kids loved it and the adults didn't mind getting splashed too much. Ben showed us some of his swimming skills he learned last week. Maddy and Tyler just splashed around and enjoyed the cool water.
