Lander Park

 Life has been one long crazy waiting game as Lee hunts for a new job better suited for providing for our family.  We decided we needed a break from Riverton.  We spent the afternoon at the Lander park having a picnic and just playing and enjoying the outdoors.  Kim was the first one to notice a deer off to the side.  I only looked up because she was saying cow cow and pointing.  Right now everything is either a cow, or Cocoa (our dog's name).  The sprinklers were going and it was hot so we let the kids get as wet as they wanted.
 Kim was brave enough to go to the edge of the water.  It was hilarious!  Every time the water went by she would jump a little and get a "Hey, where did that come from?" look on her face.  So funny.
 Kim also found a stick and thought it would be fun to hit me with it.  That didn't last long.  It really hurt!
Those darn wood chips always have a way of getting into your shoes...
 We stopped at the Scream Shack and got some cones on the way home.  Yummy.  Taylor stayed in the car to eat her cone since she had stripped off her wet clothes.  Funny to watch her fall asleep in her underwear on the drive home...not so funny to find her leftover cone melted on the car seat the next day.

We have had Liz's family visiting for the week.  It has been fun to have cousins around to play with.  Kim has been slow to warm up so Uncle Jeff wanted proof that she sat on his lap: 
The kids have had fun playing the Wii, swimming at the hotel Liz is staying at, and playing at the park.
 All the fun does tend to wear them out though...
Having to share grandma:
 "You are sitting in my chair, so I think I'll help myself to your food..."
 Have Mario and Yoshi had a tea party at your house?  If not, they need to.
 And finally, a cute picture of my and my girls.
