Sun, Water, Sand


We have been loving the warm weather and spending lots of time on our back patio! The girls are having even more fun in their little cars this summer since they are a bit bigger and stronger and better able to steer. Mina couldn't quite comprehend why she couldn't squeeze the big ball into her lap in the car...funny girl!


This is the girls' FAVORITE outdoor activity. They love to splash, throw, dunk, etc. in this table. They ask to play with it everyday, but we've only had a few days warm enough to fill it up!


My dad joined our two cement patios last weekend with a row of cement pavers and sand for grout. The girls are like magnets to the sand. After a long series of timeouts and other disciplinary efforts, I surrendered. Play in the sand, what do I care...they are occupied, happy, relatively out of trouble...I've picked my battles and this isn't one of them! : ) Maybe they'll get a real sandbox at some point, but for now have a ball in the filler sand!
