Slip N' Slide

Summer seems to have shown up extra early this year. It's already humid and in the 90's. I'm not too happy about it. Anna and Isaac, on the other hand, are thrilled that it's hot enough pull on swimsuits and use the water toys.

I was unsure of what Ben and Sam would think of the slip n' slide. Ben was delighted and Sam, cautious. It was really fun to watch them. Despite the heat, I am looking forward to getting out with the kids this summer. The twins were still so little last year that we didn't do a whole lot.




The little boys' clothes came off pretty quick.







Just getting a little drink.














I love how everyone is doing their own thing in this picture. Everyone has such different personalities, but they (mostly) play so well together. I guess that's sort of the point of families, isn't it. Different people, different traits, different needs. But thank goodness we have each other. It makes the experience so rich.

Fun! I'm jealous for the warmth. We had a week of 80's and then in plummeted down to the 50's again. I'm constantly cold cause I keep trying to wear summer clothes and it's just not warm enough yet. I love your backyard-- what a perfect place to all of you to play!

It's about 90 degrees in my house right now - can I slip n slide, too?

I love slip and slides and summer vacations. Here's to 3 more weeks of school.
