Hooray for summer fun!

Summer is off to a great start in the Peanuts' household. The other night we attend a "Trucks and Travel" event in the parking lot of a local high school. The kids got to explore fire trucks, police cars, tractors, semi-trailers, an ambulance, and Alison's personal favorite - a school bus! Unfortunately my camera's battery died after only a few pictures, but here are the Peanuts (and daddy) in the back of a police car. Alison assured me that this will be the ONLY time she will ever be in the back of a police car.


The Peanuts are also really big into "watering" mommy's flowers and plants with their two little squirt bottles I got at Dollar Tree. Notice how they're both yellow? (The bottles, not the kids.) Exactly the same with exactly the same amount of water in them. So far, they haven't fought over them...yet. Well, Alison actually sprays the flowers. Christopher, on the other hand, likes to spray himself (no matter how many times his mommy turns the bottle around...)

This was the end result...just strip him down.

And the Peanuts also have their very own new swingset in the backyard! Our dear neighbor Rodney helped Bryant build the swingset last weekend and it is a HIT with the Peanuts. We've been spending LOTS of time in the backyard lately. Yes, the kids are outside in their jammies. They are so excited about their swingset in the morning that they don't want to take the time to get dressed before they go out to play.

And the day wouldn't be complete without a mid-morning snack outside at the picnic table in our jammies:

Hurray for summer!
