Splash Pad

Because summer is almost over here, I decided to make the most of the few days that we had left.  I said farewell to a clean house for the week, and tried to just focus on fun, fun, fun.  We went to the splash pad and took our fun neighbors with us.  I wish that I had gotten more pics, but I was too busy  lazing around.
 The one time that getting dumped on is fun and refreshing.  
 Cyrus and his smoking moves.  Bonus:  those are not his flip flops.  In fact, I don't know whose they are, but he enjoyed clomping around in them anyway.  
We ended this week with Friday being "Do whatever you want day."  (Thanks Ortons for the idea).  Much to my surprise, it wasn't all that huge of a disaster.  The boys started off their day by not doing their chores.  They had to go to Costco with me, even though they didn't want to, but they decided to order churros for lunch.  Then they spent the rest of the day sword fighting in their underwear, watching Pink Panther, and eating hot dogs for dinner.  They fell asleep in our bed, after which Noah and I moved them to their beds so we could get some sleep.  I am sad that Calvin is starting back to school tomorrow, and that Wyatt starts preschool this week.  The house will be so quiet!!

Those pics are great! I love Calvin getting dumped on - total rock star pose - and you HAVE to frame that one of Cyrus! What a stud!

Fun idea for the 'whatever you want to do' day too - I'll have to remember that one for Xmas break.

Is it just me or does Cyrus look just like Wyatt? And I don't think it's just me.
