Hot Fun in the Summertime

We kicked off the weekend first thing Friday morning with some breakfast, moon bouncing, and ice cream cake with the urban family to celebrate Charles's 4th birthday! Hadley was so pooped after the party that there was no energy left to take her to camp for the final hour and a half. That, and she took a light saber to the head in an epic battle, so she just wasn't feeling it.

Getting in the birthday party spirit Thursday afternoon

Harper didn't quite understand what she was supposed to be so excited about, especially considering she'd be at home napping for all but 30 minutes of the party.

Charles and Hadley taking a spin on his birthday present. This would later be the stage for the light saber war. In hindsight, that wasn't a very smart idea.

Urban family!

Saturday we didn't tell Hadley what we were doing exactly when we walked out of the house in our bathing suits. We just decided we'd spring THIS on her:

SPRAYGROUND!!

And she's off!

A very CLOSE piece of the action!

OOPS!

Mama taking over ;)

So fun!!

Such a good sport!

Little Harper-sized fountains!!

Let's give this another try...

"Not again, Mama!!"

Hadley, on the other hand, loves nothing more than putting her face in the water.

A little competition for the cannon. Wonder who will win...

Hadley getting pelted by the winner, but being a good sport about it at least!
