Crazy Slide

We went to the playground the other day and the girls discovered this slide was loaded with static electricity.  Livi's hair showed it better and was way funnier than Juli's.  

Playtime

We took the girls to a playground we don't usually go to. They had a blast. We will try to get them back to that playground more often. Here are some of the highlights.

A Day at the Park

Last weekend we went to the park so the kids could play and Juli could spend some time on her bike.

Livi relaxed with a juicebox while Juli rode around Safety Town.

I am sending this post from my phone, so not sure how it will look. Hope it's okay!

Potato Mess

Livi loves playing with Mr. Potato Head and family. She dumps them all out and makes a huge mess out of them. At least she's having fun!

Wii are Family

Juli put in a special request to play Wii after school. We picked up a pizza for dinner and had a family fun night. We bowled and golfed and even tried our hand at tennis. Juli did great at bowling. I ruled the golf course and James won our bowling match. Livi had fun running around with a remote that didn't have batteries in it pretending to play!

Playing in the Pool

It was pretty hot out the last few days. We got into temps of 98 degrees and higher. It felt like over 105!! These pictures are from last week when it wasn't quite that hot! I dug the pool out of the garage, well more like I poked it out of the rafters with a broom handle until it fell on my head! The girls loved it and had a great time swimming in it!

Looks like the water may have been a little chilly!

Ahhh, that's more like it!

Juli, the sunbather.

I think that's the "quit taking my picture" face.

AARRGH! Splish SPLASH!

Our Memorial Day

We were supposed to go down the campground with the rest of the family on Monday. Livi was having slight fevers over the weekend that I thought may be due to teething, but didn't want to venture that far from home to find out they were not due to teething. Of course on Monday she seemed fine. So rather than just sit at home I decided to take the girls to the playground. We went to a different one than the one we usually go to. We had been there before, but fairly infrequently and not this season.

When we got there Juli was super excited to go to a "new" playground. She then told me that Nonna and Pop and Uncle Frankie had taken her here when they were on a lunch break at the campground (LOL) but it was still a "new" playground.

Here's a few pictures from my point and shoot camera. I took some with the big camera, but haven't had a chance to get them off the camera yet.

Check out Juli's hair, that's static, NOT wind!!

Livi is saying, "Hey you, put down that camera and help me slide!"

Busy Day

We had a very busy day today. First Livi mowed the grass.
Then Juli had a fit over something to do with the water table so we had to go inside.

Livi sat her down and had a talk with her.

Then Livi took a union break.

After that it was back to business.
Juli praising the water gods.

I just thought this was neat. I noticed the girls' reflections were really clear in the water on the deck. I took a picture expecting it to not look the same, but it came out ok.

After dinner we went out for an evening stroll. Juli pooped out about halfway through and ended up in the stroller with Livi.

Thankfully everyone is pooped out now and sleeping in their beds!
