Let the Water Days Begin!

On Tuesday, we had the greatest day!  The day started out with Sean being home, since May Day is a holiday here.  Then Asher slept in until about 8:15-8:30, which means that his parents got to sleep in too!  Yay!  Being well rested, we slowly got up, took our time getting ready, and Sean made breakfast: blueberry pancakes and sausages.  Yum!  Asher loves to pick each blueberry out of the pancake before he eats the rest, so he had blue fingers for the rest of the day.

We then went outside to the playground; we played and relaxed with the neighbors while the parents got some much needed down time.  It was a very hot day on this first of May, so I made a decision.  It was time to bring on the water!  We borrowed a little pool and a kid's sprinkler from a neighbor.  Filled the pool, got our bathing suits on, and turned on the sprinkler!  And what a great couple of hours we had!  Here are some pictures of our day :)

"Hey!  What's the deal with this so-called "pool"?  Are you kidding me with this?  

Seriously guys, could it be any smaller?"

Slowly, he inched his way into the water...

He then realized that he just might like this whole sprinkler thing!

And off he went! :)

He found out he could control the water too - woohoo!

Then daddy showed him that he could jump over the sprinkler!

And Asher, who will never say no to jumping gave it a go - Good job little man!

Asher and his friends cooling off their feet :)

Watering the plants and trees :)

Our handsome, wet little boy :)

Flying with daddy!

Woohoo!  Driving in my sweet pink car, and looking good!

Asher was determined to bring the car into the pool with him...obviously it didn't work so well...

He ended up throwing a little fit, so the car went away.  Even though he was saying please :)

And then Sean's other side came out...

And kids got a little more wet :)

Though they took it very well - thank goodness!

But sister wanted revenge ;)  Get Sean!!!

Watch out for Asher!

Ha ha!  That'll teach you to sneak up on me!

My wonderful boys!

Just going about his business.

The two little trouble makers!  Watch out for these guys!

We had such a great day!  Water in the morning, a nice long nap, then dinner at the chicken shack!  We couldn't be happier!  Happy May Day!
