Parachute Time

Jaylyn likes to lead her sisters in fun activities sometimes.  She reminds me of how Makenna plans fun activities for her sisters.  :-)  So, this particular day, Jaylyn must have been reminiscing about Little Lambs play group and their play time with the parachute.  Leighton was having a blast.  :-)

DSC_1306Then they took turns sitting under the parachute and made animal sounds or something while the parachute went up and down on them.

DSC_1310So fun!

Eggs

Late post again. . . dyeing eggs for those grandparents that might still want to see . . .  :-)

DSC_1349I’m ready!

DSC_1334Handy mini spatulas are good for dyeing eggs!

DSC_1335Stick in the egg and dip!

DSC_1336Leighton liked to use it too.

DSC_1338But she also just liked to dip in with her hand.  :-)

DSC_1351They stayed busy dipping and creating

DSC_1360Nice job!

DSC_1342Don’t forget to stick out your tongue because this is hard work.

DSC_1369We tried out the magic glitter shaker this year.  It worked all right.

DSC_1372Then Leighton decided, well, lets just peel the egg!

DSC_1373Yes, this is a funny idea!

DSC_1380See!

DSC_1381What fun!

DSC_1377I love being creative!

DSC_1385Here are some of the cracked, colored & glittery eggs

Adley’s Preschool Egg Hunt

What kid doesn’t love an egg hunt, even if they last about two minutes.  :-)

DSC_1127-1I love how Adley was just “floating” down the steps ready for the hunt. 

DSC_1132Found one!

DSC_1133And another!

DSC_1136-2I want one!

DSC_1143Woohoo!

DSC_1147The class waiting for everyone to finish.  I like the boy with his head in his basket.  :-)

DSC_1154-1Play time

DSC_1260Hi, Mom!

Then we had some fun taking pictures of Leighton.  I think Jaylyn took all of these except for this first one.

Lake

Most readers probably know TJ’s trip to China ended up being a bit shorter than planned.  :-)  But his three days were great.  Then he got to take us all to the lake for the rest of the week.  I didn’t really take too many pictures, but here are a couple.

DSC_1067 Here are the guys before they left.

DSC_1072And SKI BALL!

We enjoyed swimming at the indoor pool, a little shopping and lots of relaxing and having fun together. 

Thank you Diana and Larry for sharing your place! 

(The girls are already asking when we get to go back and swim there again!)
