Splish Splash

This fine weather we've been having has made for lots of fun times splashing around outside. Some kids get a proper wading pool to play in, but poor neglected Evy just gets her old baby tub to play with. Lucky she's so small, because she still manages to have a lot of fun with it.



And then, usually, after a nice splash, we take a little walk around the pond. Gotta love the rubber boots and no pants combo. It's a good look.



And one of the main attractions on ye old pond has been the baby geese. They're now into their ugly teenager phase (they were much cuter a few weeks ago) but Evy still loves to walk over and yell 'hi baby ducks' at them. I've given up pointing out the difference between geese and ducks. Every bird, from a chickadee to a crow, is a 'duck' to Miss E. I'll sic Grandpa Jackson, former biology teacher, on her in a few years. He'll straighten her out.



So, as much as we need rain and my rainbarrel is almost empty, we surely are making the most of the sunshine!
