Father's Day Weekend

We are sure loving the nice, sunny weather here. A while back, I got out the sprinkler to let the girls run through. It took them a little time to warm up to it, and they would only get close to it if it was just a tiny sprinkle. But they had a good time with it.
Summer thought it was fun to spray Claire with it. Claire thought it was fun too--for about a half a second.

Grandma and Grandpa Kartchner came to visit us for Father's Day. Our friend Lindsey graduated from Wenatchee, so we headed over to stay the night at a hotel and attend the graduation. The girls got to swim with Grandma and Grandpa. They loved it.

We also got to visit Smallwood Harvest Farm while we were in Wenatchee. It was so much fun.
We got back to Liberty Lake Saturday evening, and Sunday morning, Grandma helped the girls make breakfast in bed for dad.

The girls also dressed up in Grandpa's swim gear. Claire loved running around with the cap and goggles on.

A few weekends ago, we shopped through the Liberty Lake yard sale (a Saturday morning where about a hundred houses have yard sales so you just wander the streets and yard sale). We got this awesome swimming pool for 5 bucks. Thanks to Grandpa for helping us blow it up. (Yes--he used his own breath!)

Grandma and Grandpa got to swim a bit in the lake while they were here, so Dad wanted to try it out too. (Grandma's in the background, waiting in the water for Dad, and Claire couldn't figure out what dad was wearing.)

We had a great weekend, and are so grateful that we could spend Father's Day with our special Dad and Grandpa.
