The Water Sprinkler

The sprinkler was always a favorite for me as a kid. Even though I grew up with a pool, there is just something about the sprinkler.

I think Roxy enjoys it more than the kids, honestly.  Sometimes she is going so wild over it, the kids are a little afraid to join in.

 When the dog finally tired out, I asked them to give me their best Kung Fu poses.

Love it.

New House

Among all the other stuff that went on this summer, we bought a house.  Finally, I get around to blogging it.

It is just one block over from where we've been renting.  We liked the neighborhood (specifically our old neighbors) and the convenience to shopping, so we stuck around.  It also happened to be The Man's favorite house in this development.

Looks like we'll be happy here for a long while.

Preschool

The Girl started preschool!  The High School here offers a child development and education course to their students. The class basically consists of running a preschool.  We are in the afternoon session and the Girl is loving it.  The ratio of student teachers to preschoolers is nearly 1:1, so she gets LOTS of attention.
