Summer Fun - Sprinklers and Squirt guns



Sunday after church Adam went to do some marketing and the kids and I headed outside after nap time to have some fun in the water! I moved the sprinkler to a kid safe area and we ran through the sprinkler. Chloe had a blast right away, it was really fun to see. Evan was unsure of the sprinkler so I held him and we ran through together. He was fine with it but never really "liked" it so he went off and did his own thing, which was to use to play mower and mow the grass.

After the sprinkler fun died down we cracked out the squirt guns. They were a lot of fun! Evan made me laugh so hard when he said "Mom, look" and proceeded to unintentionally squirt himself in the face. Priceless!

We also used chalk and rode bikes! It was a lot of fun! I really enjoy the moments when I am able to join in the fun of being a kid. Jumping through the sprinkler was so much fun, just watching the kids with the squirt guns and being victim to a few squirts made my day! The laughs of children are so priceless, and I was able to join in that! What a treat!

Cheers, Beth
