School's out!

We have lots of time to play now! And argue... and scream... and laugh... just wish it was more about the laughing and less about the whining :-) HA!

 Thank you Pinterest... We used up some old Easter eggs to make some maracas... I can't believe Natalie sat through the project!  It took alot of "wait, don't touch yet, just a minute, no were not ready for that" kind of talk at this table :-)

 Now you can shake them!

 And I can only imagine what she is thinking here... "Hmmmm... now how do I get the rice out of here?"

 All stickered up!  and ready to make more!  My little crafter!

 And now for some more fun!  It was a VERY COLD pool they slipped into to!

 Time for lunch and some naps....

 And some adult time ;-)

 And a fun surprise after the naps... A slip n slide!  Which is not so slippery when it's not wet.  None of them wanted the water to squirt them, it was Cold!.... But scooting down will do for a minute...

 Until we got it a little more wet....

 And now we can slip!

 Woooooo.....

 Hoooooooooooo......

 Sunshine + friends = Popsicle!

 Ciocia... give those glasses back to the poor sun blinded child!

 And after a margarita (ok maybe 2) Ciocia convinced me to be her slip n slide buddy!

 Wonderful girls!

 And our awesome Uncle Travie.....!!!! We always have lot's of love to share with him!

 Why do they look so big here!?!

 We got to go to a family reunion in Elma at the Durbins for the day!  Too much fun! A river...

 rocks.... buckets, shovels....

 these clothes didn't last long before they were soaked...

 And a little stroll off of one side to the other!

 And... a canoe ride!!! Clara did NOT want to get out!!!

 Lots of cousins... Didn't get them all in the picture, but the girls had no time to be still for a moment!

 HaPpY FaThErS DaY!!!

 Boat girls :-)

 This morning consisted of an early morning tea party... Natalie: "here Pippy, I cut you an apple"...

" Oh... Thank you"

 Natalie decided she need to move the party elsewhere... Nat: "Lets go to the beach for a picnic, come on"!

Nat: "Pip I have some soup for you on da spoon, it's for you, you hungry?"  I just can't believe how much she talks... and... how much she sings!  These two were having such a good time this morning, I hope it lasts all summer!
