Getting Outside - finally!

We have been stir-crazy inside the last three to four weeks. The heat has been unbearable. I figured out our sprinkler system and decided the boys needed a little water fun and exercise. They ran and ran and ran for the entire 36 minutes (each section is on a timer).


We had two inflatable balls and the game was, shove-the-ball-as-close-the-sprinkler-base as you can. Everything with boys has to be rough, has to be physical and must be loud.

Back to the shoving game.

What would happen if I step on the sprinkler - even though mommy has told me one thousand times not to?

Jack hurt his foot. He got over it.

Ben is a tired mess. Look at those legs and face!

Oh, how I know and love this facial expression.

I just want to reach out and pick that grass off his face.

Drying off and laughing at each other. I just love it when they love each other.

Worn out and happy. Good idea, mom!
