Sunday (8-28) we went to spend the day with Amy Derrick and Glen at their new house in Hesston. Since it was 101 degrees plus we got out the sprinklers for the boys and they had a blast! We found a shady spot to watch them and it wasn't too bad compared to being in full sun, but still pretty warm. In the above pic Luke is using his "magic hands" to make the water go up! I was surprized that he actually ran through the sprinklers getting his face wet because normally that is not something he enjoys, but he had a great time.
Aaron even got in on the action, he liked to feel the water on his fingers!
Below is the web appropriate version of the boys "watering the tree"! They were too funny. (And yes, I have the orriginal in a safe place in case either Amy or I want to pull it out for future girlfriends! ;-)
After a much longer time in the sprinklers than I was expecting the boys decided they were cold and ready to come in and play a bit.
They each drank about 2 cups full of tea right off the bat (warm because they were cold) and then a cup full of cold water, so we made several trips to the indoor plumbing over the next hour or so!
We had supper together with them, a great crab quiche as the main course and home made chocolate mint ice cream for dessert!!! It was good to catch up a bit after all of our vacations this summer! Maybe soon it will be cool enough to start making zoo trips together again. (-:
