going on.
friday afternoon we went to a really fun park on Germann and McQueen. all the toys are under farm shaped ramada's. it's huge. we had lunch, and let the kids run around for a little bit. they have little paths for the kids to ride bikes or scooters on. the knees in tilleys pants always get dirty from her crawling. if i remember i take them off when we're outside. we can't wait for her to walk!
friday night we hung out at davy & syd's....davy was out of town. parker (big) wanted to stick around for "night games." while playing kickball we noticed a few of the smaller kids missing. i went around back and found them chopping lemons and grapfruits, and squeezing the juice out into a pitcher-by hand. i told you my kids were dying to have a
lemonade stand. they made their own sign, and set up camp at around 7pm. suprisingly people stopped. we watched, and syd covered her eyes, as each car drove up....for fear a neighbor or ward member would get a glass of this fresh squeezed!
look at the swallow you got for
$.10! and look at parker's face realizing there's dirt and leaves floating in their nectar.
parker and quincy stayed the night at syds friday night, so early
saturday morning we headed back over to relieve her. we ended up spending most of the day there. parker watched all the kids while syd and i ran to cvs. when we got back we made lunch, the kids went swimming, had a koolaid stand, and parker rounded up all the kids for one last game of kick ball. then we all headed to grandma cheryls to listen to the cougars smash airforce. quincy threw in the towel quite early, but later got her second wind (probably due to the sucker in her mouth). grandma has a "medicine cabinent (jars filled with candy)" at her house, and if you can't tell, the
dum dum's are on the bottom shelf-within the babies reach.
as we were deciding what we were doing for dinner, grandpa comes out with a big bowl of spaghetti. what was he thinking. the babies were like
little birds with their mouths open waiting for a bite. we thought it was funny....i don't think grandpa did.
