Summer Fun

I listened to a book this week that had flashbacks of the main character's childhood and his "gang". It was summer and they played with squirt guns. It made me smile. Good memories from my childhood!
It was such fun filling up the reservoir - the anticipation of firing it at some unsuspecting soul.
Minis - from birthday parties?
My walking down squirt gun memory lane took me to running through the sprinkler. That was another fun summer activity! It often took longer to actually set up the thing you were going to do than to do the thing.

  • get hose
  • attach to spigot
  • realize you need another length
  • attach that
  • find the sprinkler in the garage
  • put on swimsuit
  • get towel
  • prance through the freezing water with neighbor Laurie Reinertson, try to keep our little sisters out
  • realize Dick Westbrook just mowed - wet grass is now stuck on your feet
  • stomp through the basement dripping, and dragging in wet grass
You're welcome, Mommy!
