Water Balloons

On one of the hot days during my sister's visit we got out some water balloons to throw around. Ben loved it. Sam and Izzie... not so much.

Ben was pretty good at the throwing part.

As for the catching...

Well, what's the fun of catching a water balloon anyway?

So Far Behind...

I'm so far behind in my blogging but wanted to get something up from when my sister and her family were here.Here are the three older kids at Watauga Dam... I think Izzie is being held against her will.

Geese

There is a linear path that runs through a park in Elizabethton and then continues most of the way to Walmart. If I want to get out in the evenings with the children we often take the bike trailer here.

This time of year baby geese and ducks are everywhere. (It took me a while to get these pictures up so the geese are actually much bigger now!)

Ben wanted to get closer but of course as we approached, the geese backed up and then went into the water. I liked how they were so careful to have one goose at the front and one at the back.


Just a couple of funny faces from Ben...


I asked Ben and Izzie to sit on the wall.

In the process Izzie got some debris on her hand and had to get rid of it before she could settle for a picture.
