Prequel to a fun filled summer?

For the past few days Adri and Sammers have been playing outside every opportunity that arises. Yesterday Adri decided that she is now a bug queen and turned over every rock and log she could locate on the property to find worms, centipedes, and other bugs. The girl has zero fear, ripping those squishy worms right out of their holes and then plopping them into her clear viewing glass. She was in absolute heaven and couldn't wait for Daddy to get home today so she could repeat the task.

Sammy (as well as Adri) has decided that he's in love with the water table that Aunt Shannon gave him for his birthday. He spent the better part of last night playing in it after Daddy set it up for him. I made sure to put hot water in it, which probably did little to detract from the coldness of it once he was soaked. :) He failed to cry when he was outdoors in the decreasing temperatures in soaked clothing...He did cry when I brought him indoors to peel the cold clothing from his little body. Apparently braving soaked clothing is worth it to play in the water.

Adri and Sammy's other favorite activity lately is the sandbox. They both love to sit in it and dig (Sam's eats a little too), then fill buckets of sand. Hopefully all of these activities located right in our backyard will mean that this summer is going to be fun filled and relaxed. :)

Here's some of the photos from yesterday's activities:

Sweet! They look bigger when I put the lid on!
