Splashy Weekend

In an effort to stay cool this weekend, we spent a lot of time splashing in water.  It all began with the slip n' slide on Friday night.  We were all having a rousing good time cooling off, when much to the girls' dismay the slip n' slide suddenly popped.  Without another word, we threw on cover-ups and went straight out to buy another $9 dollar slide.  While out we also spied an equally inexpensive plastic pool, that just seemed to be calling our name. While the pool was filling with freezing cold hose water, back to sliding we went...

Concentrating on getting just the right amount of speed.

Pure joy!

Piper couldn't quite figure out how to run and slide onto her tummy, so Kyle 'helped' her out a little each time.

For as scared as she looks, it did end in a smile each time!

And now for the fast version...

We hit the Farmer's Market on Saturday for the first time this year, and the girls were just enamored with the river.  In keeping with our weekend 'water' theme, here are a couple photos from the river.

Then it was back home to try out that new little pool.  And no, it is not deep enough for goggles, per say, but its still fun to try!

While we could hardly get Piper out of the pool for meals, Hadley preferred to dip her body into the pool and then run around the yard like a crazy kid.

Ahhh, could summer be any better?
