Umbrella walk, ukelele lesson

 As they were going down for a nap this morning, Harper and I made a "deal" that we would go for a walk with umbrellas when they got up.  She even wanted to shake hands on it, not taking any chances that it might not happen.  It wasn't raining after naptime, but they still put up their umbrellas.  We played a little hide and seek in the woods with Papa and then Harper wanted to walk over to Gabe and Des' to look for more "teeny tiny balls" - Parker's airsoft BBs that are scattered in the gravel around their garage.   Harper picks up the green ones, Ava gets the yellow or white, they bring them back, save them in a bowl, eventually they get dropped on the floor, Papa or I step on them and then throw them away after the girls leave. 

I got to hold all the "beautiful" flowers that Ava picked along the way. 

Rielee and Papa started ukulele lessons last night through Parks and Rec.  Papa took lessons a few years ago and thought it would be fun for Rielee to learn to play.  She came over tonight to practice with him.  He helped her with the G7 chord, it is a difficult one to master, but she is getting used to it.
