Summer is HERE!

Yesterday was gorgeous! Temperatures in the 70s, and beautiful sun to go with it.

It made for some very happy children! We filled up the water table and the splashed around for a while.

Viva was happy getting water everywhere. She was out there for longest because she was first out on the deck! The boys eventually joined her, and it went crazy from there...

It started out with three children peacefully (relatively, if using pirate voices is classified under peaceful and calm?!) playing together. Occasionally splashing each other. Jake shrieking (rather) loudly when this happened. Then Grandma, who was below deck watering grass seed, upped the game with the sprinkler aimed up at the children. They took it better than I would have expected, but Bentley decided it would go even better if he was wearing his swimsuit while getting wet. He's a practical kid!

Three kids and three swimsuits later, they convinced Grandma to pull out the sprinkler and the slip and side and...

and Matt and I took off. Date night! :) Thanks Grandma & Opa!

The kids were hoping to get out the pool today, but it was a bit on the cloudy side and it didn't happen. We've got our fingers and toes crossed for a sunny Monday (and while we're at it how about a gorgeous June/July/August too?!).
