Fun With Friends

Bridgestreet Splash Pad with Mommy, Mrs. Emily, Noah, Benjamin, Mrs. Holly, and Harrison:

Harrison playing with the sprinkler, I think in this picture he was trying to get it back out of the ground.

I can't remember which one, but one of the twins playing with the sprinkler...this is where Harrison got the idea from.

For some reason Becca just didn't want to get out there an play in the water much.

This is about the farthest she got out to play this day...and this one wasn't working very well so really only her feet got wet. The other three kids were having a great time playing in the water and Becca just wanted to eat and watch I guess. She also didn't want to get very far from mommy either.

The Bridgestreet Splash Pad with Mrs. Emily:

One Tuesday morning. Emily took the boys and Becca up to the splash pad at one of the local shopping centers where they met Holly and Harrison to play and have lunch. Thanks to Holly for taking these pictures and sharing them with me since I had to be at work that day.

She LOVES the water!!!!

I just LOVE this picture, she just has the cutest little face and I love the little ringlets she gets when her hair is wet.

She took one of the boy's hats and put it on it was so cute!!

Laying down playing, too cute love the expression on her face in this one.

The boys had to lay down too!!! Though it is hard to tell if it was the twins or Becca who started this, but they all took turns laying in the water.

Harrison Loves the water too!!!

Play Date Fun at Our House:

About a month ago we had two of Becca's friends over for lunch and a play date. Also time for the other moms and I to spend some time together too. We all had a great time, and neither of her friends were ready to leave even though all three of them were completely worn out!!

Rebecca and Brody during the play date.

Brody, Becca, and Harrison in the pool. Harrison and Becca had a great time splashing in the pool, but we just couldn't get Brody to sit down; he just wanted to walk around.

As you can tell here this was Becca and Harrison's favorite activity of the day.

Before lunch we played all over the house, but what they had the most fun with was playing the jumper. Can you tell Harrison was having fun. Poor little guy didn't even have to jump because Brody and Becca bounced him all over that thing. Though I don't think he minded...all three of them were just giggling and squealing the entire time!!!

This is about the only picture I could get of all three of them. I just couldn't get them to look at me though. Oh well they were having fun!

Watch out Harrison, here comes Brody.

Harrison watching Brody ride on the pink 4-wheeler.

Brody made a bee line for that pink 4-wheeler, he just loves it and has to play with it every time he comes over.

Dinner at the Hester's:

One Saturday night the Hester's had us as well as Derrick, Holly, and Harrison over for dinner and to let the kids play. Here are a few pictures of the kiddos having fun in the backyard after dinner.

I wish I would have put these in order, but here you can see Becca at the top of the ladder of Brooke's swing set.

Here she is starting to clime up the ladder. Before this we had just been putting her up on top of the slide, but she had been watching Brook climbing so she thought she'd try it out too. We weren't too sure about letting her, but also wanted to see what she'd do. Thanks to Holly who saw her and stood behind her to make sure she didn't fall (and she never did, even with Brooke trying to clime up the ladder at the same time).

Here you can see how excited she was to be going down the slide, and there's Paula cheering her on too.

This was one of the first times she went down the slide and she wasn't too sure about it, but when she got off she wanted to go again and again and again...!

Becca just checking everything out, and Brooke climbing up the ladder.

Brooke, Becca, and Harrison LOVED being pulled around the yard in the waggon, they loved it so much that David, Derrick and JD had to take turns running them around the yard.

Brooke even got in on the fun and pulled Becca and Harrison around. For a while until she decided she wanted to ride too.
