What a great day
at the lake!
ok not really!
This is life in my front yard every other week. This is what my kids do when we irrigate. It is just like having a lake in our front yard but instead of slimy green slippery rocks to step on we have nice soft grass to cushion your feet as you run through the water. The water is perfect for this time of year because it is luke warm.
My kids are always finding fun things to do in the water. They use the skin board or boogie boards to slide around on. Or they tie a rope to the boards and pull each other. On this day they used one of Thayne's 8' horse troughs which just kinda floated on top of the water. Three of them would jump inside while one would spin it around like a merry go round (the kind at the park). They really got going fast.
I love watching them play together when they are all getting along without any fighting. They really have alot of fun when they start getting creative ideas and trying them out together. These are definitely things they never would have been able to try if we still lived in California. Sometimes I do feel guilty that they miss out on the beach.

So fun! The manure in the irrigation grosses me out a little, but kids don't care:)
that's awesome. that thing floats? BTW - crazy for flying!
Gena we are lucky that the water in the front doesn't have manuer. Thank goodness. In the back by the horses that water would be gross to play in.
How cool is that! Your talking a different language with the word irrigation and stuff. The most water we get in our yard is when a sprinkler breaks! Looks like fun!
Nice! Your kids are too funny. These are the memories that will last forever. I love your kids.
That is SO cool! It is really neat that they all have fun playing together too!
