Today was supposed to be rainy and gloomy, but were happy to wake up to sunshine instead! We took advantage of the beautiful weather and headed to the park.
Cal practiced riding his bike (and was well-prepared for any fires that may have sprouted up, apparently). He got tired of pedaling after a while and enjoyed pushing the bike instead.
We walked around the lake, watched some geese, and then stopped at the playground. I love watching the kids play together- they enjoy each others company so much...I hope they are always this close!
Samantha is so brave- I find myself chasing her all over the place, making sure she doesn't throw herself down slides or climb to the top of the jungle gym.
After we played a while, we walked through the grass, looking for worms. Then we spotted this...
A puddle! Cal tested it first...then Sammy got into the action, too.
We got a little carried away...

We got a little carried away...
with that wonderful feeling of mud squishing in your shoes...
with the summery scent of new, green grass...
and the satisfaction that comes from being covered in mud, sides hurting from laughing so hard.
Do ya know a good indicator of how successful a trip to the park was?

The number of layers of wet, muddy clothes you have to strip off before you get strapped into your carseat, of course!
