At the Car Wash!

The girls and I went to the track today to run/jog, but there were people everywhere setting up for Relay for Life that starts this evening. I don't jog well in front of a lot of people(if they too are running then they don't pay attention, but these people were not and I was the only one using the track). It was not my best workout. We came home earlier than I thought we would, and we needed to do another activity to kill time before Jason got home. So we decided to wash/clean out the van. It was a relatively warm day and the water was quite refreshing. Cailyn and Jessica had a great time playing in the bucket of water and occasionally being splashed by mommy with the water hose. Cailyn even got me a couple of times. We just giggled and played in the water together. Cailyn probably would have stayed out there all day if I would have let her. But Jessica, on the other hand, was miserable after a while and had to practice her patience until I was ready to take her in. She did a pretty good job. Overall, it was a very nice day.
Before we got soaked.
At the beginning Cailyn was a great helper
Jessica trying to cool off. She dumped the bucket several times.
Cailyn a little distracted from the purpose. At least it was in the grass though and not on the driveway.
Cailyn trying to get warm afterwards and Jessica wanting to pull hair. Since she has none of her own she has to pull Cailyn's.

What a fun day! Looks so nice and warm and that the water probably felt pretty good!

Cailyn sure is doing AWESOME on her memorizing! Still feeling like a slacker mom over here for not jumping on the bandwagon--but I think you're doing great!
