Fun Fun!

Just wanted to share a few pictures of the fun we've had this week. Both Pete and I took vacation this week while the girls are out of school. We didn't do much Monday, ran some errands and let the girls play all day with their friends. We had water play in the afternoon. We set up a water sprinkler and the girls rigged up a slide in the little pool. They were out there for over two hours.

Tuesday was the annual bike parade in a local town. The girls decorated their bikes and we walked down the street. It was very crowded! This will probably be the last time we go there for the forth. It was much more fun with 1/4 of the people. I mentioned to my neighbors that we should do a neighborhood parade next year. They sounded interested. Later in the evening we sat up our chairs in the cul-de-sac and all watch the dads set off some small fireworks and we played with sparklers. That was fun and brought back lots of good memories!

Yesterday we spent the day at Wet'n'Wild! We had a really nice time. The girls had a blast. We played in the wave pool, jumped from a pirate ship, rode a lazy river ride, and no-so-lazy raft ride. Our day was cut just a little short by a thunderstorm, but we have made a list of the things we want to do next time. (.... a little expensive for another trip this year, so it will have to wait for next.)

We don't have too many exciting plans for the rest of the week. We have a couple of house projects to do and my mother-in-law is here til Sunday. We will probably take advantage of the babysitter and play some tennis tomorrow morning and maybe a movie tomorrow night. I can't wait to see that second Pirates of the Carribean!
