The Creek Works For Me..

So, the pool doesn't work me...but I found that THE CREEK with 5 kids works GREAT!!! Water just a few inches deep is fabulous with little ones..... Daddy called to say he had a late meeting....so...we woke LL up from her nap early and headed for the local creek....I THINK this was LL's first trip down to the creek....
They had so much fun....




LL loves being splashed more than anything in this world...The girl LOVES her some water play..... :)
***Thank you for ALL your sweet comments about our 1 Year Home Video..it was so fun to watch!! I know I'll always cherish it!! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and Father's Day!! And, head for your closest local creek if you get a chance...the heat today was in the 90's but the water was COLD and felt GREAT!!! (well..just minus the one very large, long snake we saw :)
**Happy Friday to you all, kj

  7. Precious! Love the creek pics! Jody found a seriously huge snake skin in our garage the other day...ummmm, but no snake. I don't know if that is good or bad! Everytime I am in the garage buckling the kids in their carseats, I am scared it is going to come bite my feet! Ha! I hope it is long gone from our garage! :)

  11. Very cute pictures! I came across your blog from Jody (talkissheep). I also have a daughter named Lucy, so your blog caught my eye! We just started a blog minus1project.blogspot.com Do you think you could give us a shout out to help us spread the word on our fundraising items? I am really enjoying seeing all these adoption blogs. What blessing and encouragement I get from reading these journeys of faith. Thank you for sharing yours! Blessings on your family!

  15. How long was the snake? So glad you can handle the creek! One snake sighting and it'd be UGLY! I have to know what's swimming/splashing with me!! Wonderful pictures, man have they grown!!!

  16. What fun pictures!!! And I have to say, I am with you on the pool. I am in a constant state of PANIC anytime we are near a pool. I have had to dive in to rescue my daughter twice just because she tripped and fell (she has her mothers gracefulness...)but something like the creek at our favorite camping spot where they slowly wade out and knee deep is as far as it goes is WONDERFUL. I can actually relax! :)
