Summer Fun...

Yesterday Elsie and I spent all afternoon playing at grandma and grandpa's house...Elsie is always discovering and learning something new there every time we go there...yesterday she learned about tents! Uncle Colter set the little tent outside to play in...Elsie started saying"tent" as soon as she realized what they were doing...
They played Uno in the tent...and I am certain that Elsie followed the rules quite well!
Maybe she just made up new rules...
I think her aunties and uncle realy just played the game around her while she sat in the middle enjoying her own made up game with her stack of uno cards...at least she has a good imagination and is easily entertained!
Later in the afternoon Elsie layed down in the tent...we thought she was so tired that she just might fall asleep...but I think she was just putting her baby down for a nap..she is such a good mommy!
Auntie Ceara let the kids play dress up with some of her big bracelets...Elsie had so much fun with these...she would put the bracelets on than take them off...again and again! This kept her very occupied for a long time!
She would put one on her left arm than one her right arm...back and forth until she had all the bracelets on...than she would take them off and do it again...I always wonder what she must be thinking while playing so intently on something...
What a fun and busy afternoon...she never did have a nap...but who needs a nap when its summer!?

ahh yes, summer is never boring around here --- always someone to play with and plenty of outdoor activities to engage in.

as soon as it warms up the kids will want to start camping out. i remember you older girls sometimes camping out for days at a time - these younger kids are the same way and it's just a matter of time before elsie will also want to camp out with them!!

summertime --- lovelovelove it!!
