Since Hailey was wearing her sundress and we hadn't been to the hotel yet, I pulled out her play clothes when the kids were told that they could play in the water sprinkler. It looked like they all had a good time running and jumping through it. Hunter liked helping Brent get it set up. He manages to get the hose and sprinkler functioning here at home. He was a little bummed at first when he set out and no water was coming out. I think the valve is in the shed.
Before the sprinkler was put on, the water was turned on and Hunter darted for the hose. He decided all four posts for the clothes line needed a good watering.
Leave it to my kids to stick their bums in the spray! (She did tell me when she saw the picture on my computer at home that she was pretending to be a peacock. Love her imagination!)
A mini trampoline was also brought out and put to good use. The children played and played and eventually dried out.
We played a family trivia game with Alice. It was called Crap or Fact. It was fun to hear some of the trivia questions and also fun to just say Crap. We stopped the game when Kent brought Maxine over. Maxine is one of grandmother's sister's daughters. She calls grandmother regularly and has been a very good friend to her forever. She is a funny lady to talk too. She is a lot like my grandmother and says stuff straight out - no sugar coating!
We had a dinner and enjoyed some delicious raspberry ice cream that Alice made.
