Water Fun

We have had lots of water fun lately. Usually the weather is so hot that we have to go to water-filled places to actually be outdoors! Thankfully, we got some rain last week and things have cooled off a bit. By "cooled off" I mean we went from 105 degrees at the highest to now enjoying the low nineties, but it has made a nice difference.

A couple of weeks ago we met our friends the Bufkins at Hawaiian Falls water park in Mansfield. Our boys had a blast and Meredith and I had times for good conversation.

Noah and Sawyer are all sunscreened-up in this picture and are ready for splashing and sliding.
It's hard to get 3 little squirmy boys to cooperate in a picture, so this is the best we could do :)

I don't think there is any doubt that Noah had a great time. He plays so hard. I enjoy bringing him places like this where he can run around, play hard, and not get in trouble. He has so much energy!!

Jude enjoyed the wave pool and sliding down the slides a little. But mostly he enjoyed being strolled around. He's at that awkward "can't walk but wants to" stage. He really enjoyed his picnic lunch!

Our dry boys leaving the park and heading home for naps!

We also went to a Splash Pad in Crowley with our friend, Rachel, her son, Luke, and Rachel's sister, Ruthie. The Splash Pad is completely free! We brought a picnic lunch, so the results were a very frugal and fun day!

Noah enjoyed pumping these water guns and spraying friends.

Jude was a little clingy at first, but then he crawled around the soft padding and got a little braver with the water.

Again, Noah plays so hard. He's always exhausted and naps well after days like these!

These are our friends, Rachel, Luke and Ruthie. Our budding photographer, Noah, actually took this shot. Amateur's luck, I guess.

Here's sweet Luke. He and Jude's birthdays are only a few days apart so they are good buddies.
