Water, Water, Water

Saturday was one of those days where my kids were in their suits all day long and we went from place to place playing in the water. We started the morning out planning to take the boat out at Jensen's Grove, but when we got there it wouldn't start. Jeremy and his dad tried to fix it with no such luck. Grandpa Clayson brought Savannah, Hallie and Kate with him and we had our 4 kids. Since we couldn't go out on the lake the kids wanted to play in the water.

Jeremy helping Reese get used to the water- It was kindof cold!

Our niece- Savannah

Our niece- Kate ( I couldn't get our other niece, Hallie out of the water long enough to get a picture)!

At Jensen's Grove they have a little beach and the girls had fun playing in the sand. Until some really annoying boys came and started throwing mud at us. It was time to go after that!
Our next stop was in Shelley. We had a pool party to celebrate Mark's graduation from BYU-Idaho. Congratulations Mark! We are so proud of you. We love you! My parents got out the little pools and put up the water slide. The kids only went down it a few times before they started playing a super hero game on the grass. It was a little overcast and windy, but it was still hot and muggy. We stayed there for a few hours visiting and laughing.

Last stop- Aunt Corinne's house for Hallie's birthday party. They have a little hill in their back yard, so they put some plastic down the hill with some water and made a slip 'n slide. They kids had a blast-even a big kid!(Jeremy got in on the action).

The kids love it when uncle Jeremy joins in on the fun. They were laughing and splashing and having a great time.

Getting the slide ready!

Aunt Corinne got in on the fun too! She ended up pulling some of the kids down the slide in a sled. :)

Our nephew Josh- he was a little cautious about the water!

We had a fun but long day. The kids were exhausted when we finally made it home. They always have a fun time when we get together with family and cousins.
