Fun in the Sun


 It was so nice that the girls were outside by 9:00 AM playing in the sandbox.  They played there for quite awhile.  (They played there even longer in the afternoon when I let them use the hose to put water in their moats and also all over.)  Then they discovered the waterfall and pond that Papa had just cleaned out.  This is Jillian standing in the stream with her head sticking out of a maple tree.  She thought that was hilarious.  The girls stayed at the waterfall for the longest time, taking off their shoes and wading.  By ten o'clock they were soaked, splashing water over each other.
Bridget didn't like the splashing at first but it didn't take long and she was splashing Jillian.

 The girls found lots of agates in the stream and Jillian made a pile of her rocks, not Bridget.  She lined her rocks in two rows-the beginning engineer.
 After getting soaked they got towels and decided to have a tea party but not with tea or water.  They wanted chocolate milk with whip cream. 
After dinner Ty came to watch and play with the girls.  He took this picture when the girls pretended to be puppies and Ty was their trainer.  He would throw the football for the girls to fetch.  The girls had a great time with Ty.  Later, after a couple hours, Ty brought the girls in for snacks before bed and said he was exhausted!!
