A perfect summer day

We had such a fun day with the kids. They were out in the pool, well, Harper was, before noon. Ava got in and then I picked up the hose to add a little more water and it scared her, she wouldn't get in it again. Harper loved it though, and even went in the big pool, floating around on the air mattress with Auna. Ava sat on the side with me and put her feet in.

They played in and around the wading pool and in the sandbox off and on all day, and had fun cooling off Papa's feet with water.



In the evening, after a bath to wash off sand and popsicle drippings, we went for a walk, over to see Rielee playing in the pool, then to see Uncle Alan. The girls were so happy, and sat down on the driveway where I was able to take a picture of them, and their wild hair, together. Harper is wearing a swim ring for a bracelet.


After leaving Alan's, we headed over to the playfort. I was following Rielee and Ava, and all of a sudden I look up and they are both up in the playfort. Ava had followed Rielee right up the ladder! Harper quickly followed and the race was on, up the ladder-down the slide, over and over.

They had a ball! We let them play for quite awhile and it was tough to make them quit and go inside, Harper had to be carried in-screaming the whole way.
Now it is time for Papa to remove the 2 bottom rungs of the ladder so we don't have to worry about them climbing up there unattended.
