Fun in the Sun

My favorite girls . . . or Scooby-Doo cast members, take your pick

Possibly my favorite afternoon all summer--we didn't know there was a spray-pad at this park, but it was a hot day (for once), and what's the good in being a kid if you can't sometimes just rip your clothes off? Too bad Sera's shorts didn't fit better. And too bad she had an accident already. All totally worth it for this picture though!

And Addy in a spare pair of shorts (size 24 months I think?)

Some tree had some berries on it. The kids picked them off and pelted them at each other for probably an hour.

There's nothing like water on a hot day. And given how few of them there were this summer, can you blame us for soaking in the opportunity?

I may have hated scrubbing all the sand out of their scalps, but man these kids love digging!

Hanging out at the spray-pad playground

I love when my kids play together!

Addy and her old Joy School buddy Ezra

Lots of afternoon picnics at the park

Gathering apples in the backyard

What ghetto backyard would be complete without a ghetto swingset? ($15 at a yard-sale)

I think these guys wore a rut in the sidewalk in front of our house

Ah, the joy on Addy's face when she took off without training wheels!
