Bouncy House and Rain

A couple of weekends ago, we took the boys down to Decatur for the DMH Family Picnic. My mom works at DMH and each year they throw a picnic for their employees and their families. There is free food (hot dogs, hamburgers, walleye sandwiches, corn dogs, French fries, lemon shake-ups, funnel cakes, etc.) and games for the kids. The boys tried a little bit of everything for lunch. Alex loved the corn dogs. Nick liked the French fries and Logan preferred to just hold his food in his hand, although he did eat a little walleye at one point (he was in need of a nap!).

They are still a little young for some of the carnival games, but they did get to ride on the ponies and bounce in a bouncy house. It took a little coaxing at first to get them in the house, but once they went in and realized what it was… they didn't want to get out! Thankfully, cousin Chloe was there to go in and bring them out. Thanks Chloe!!! We forgot to take a camera, but we did have our camera phones!

Later that weekend, I decided to show he boys how to play in the rain. They had just finished eating dinner – or more like wearing most of it. So we stripped them and took them out in the rain to play. Grandpa wasn't interested in getting wet but Grandma and Uncle Brandon were willing to help. Thanks dad for getting some great pics! We all had fun and of course, they did not want to come back inside!

Next time, we'll find a big mud puddle too! I can't wait!!!

Looks like some really fun times! Everyone's gotta play in the rain/mud at least once in their life!
