carefree afternoon

Thursday is one of the few afternoons we don't have something scheduled. Ok, Monday and Fridays are free, but for some reason after a busy Tuesday and Wednesday, Thursday is a welcome free afternoon.





Today they chose water and swim suits immediately after getting home. I, in turn, followed them out with an ice-cream on a stick because if it's warm enough for suits, it's perfect for a cool treat.



At the end of our chocolate(y) snack we were greeted with a hidden message on the empty stick. I couldn't agree more. It doesn't get much better than everyone healthy, feeling happy, being together, and eating chocolate. I'm telling you this weather does wonders for the soul. What is it about the sun, the warmth, and the fresh cut grass smell that keeps your spirits high? It's the perfect remedy.

Looks lovely. We could have done that here today too...it was in the 80s! But, our backyard is all pinetrees and dirt, so there isn't much swimsuit/sprinkler activity unless I want a whole lot of mud.

It looks so fun. Ahhhh...I'm so ready for this change of season:)

We haven't had any swimsuit days yet. Eva was sitting on my lap when I looked at these photos and she wanted to get in on the action! How perfect is that last photo??
