The day finally came and we are officially OUT of school for the summer! The kids road their bikes to school and by the time Alexis came home had thrown together a water party for all her friends. She is getting this party thing down a little too well, but we were happy to be the hosts. They had fun playing with water balloons and buckets and most of all having a mud fight in the pond Stephen quickly made with his tractor. Olivia hung out on the porch with her friend in the safety zone, but had fun being the water balloon guard. We missed Lily (she was at her friend’s house) – luckily JT decided to take a long nap. Alexis’s friend brought a game called, "sling shot", that looks totally fun. We decided we have to make it for all of our reunions this summer.
Here’s to many more happy and warm summer days!

Looks like some good country fun. We enjoyed lots of parties with our kids friends over the years. The fun is just there waiting to be unfolded. Work hard, play hard!

Who needs Green Canyon. You just need to put up a little swing and you will be in business. Looks like a great time.

How did Stephen stay dry and clean? That looks like a ton of fun. There is nothing better than a good mud fight.
