Slides instead of sprinklers

Oreo-faced Kate, shoeless Claire, and Tempie the nose-honker play on the jungle gym.


Jess and I went to a park across town today, intending to let the girls run through the sprinklers, but the water wasn't on yet (apparently mid-April is not considered warm enough for water parks in Tucson?). We ended up on the slides instead, which was probably just as fun, and really a lot more comfortable, seeing as it cooled down to the low-80s today, and there is quite a bit of wind.






Sharing oranges yesterday, Claire shows off her new trick: scrunched shoulders.

Claire looks totally mischevious in that picture! Hilarious!

Your girls really look so different from each other....I thought they would look more alike!

So cute! And way to improvise! Did you go to the Brandi Fenton splash pad?

Michelle said...

Hey can you send some of that sun and warmth up to Redmond? Shannon O'Donnell is forecasting snow here this weekend. :)

Jen said...

Michelle - HAHAHAHA! Also, I can't believe Shannon is still forecasting in Seattle! If it's any consolation, it is FREEZING here right now (okay, it's like 55*, but that's pretty cold after 97* yesterday).

Their personalities sure do shine through in these pictures.

On another note, you always have them in such cute outfits. How do you wrestle them out of their pajamas everyday and/or keep them from taking their clothes off?

SHARING oranges? I'm impressed.

I love Claire's little shrug - she is so cute. See you at the park, maybe I can get Claire to share oranges with me!!

I love Claire's shrug, too. Isaac has started doing that all the time and it's adorable. I keep trying to catch it in pictures, but his goes so fast. Fun to see similarities in the cousins! Miss you!

Quick question, I looked at your flickr pictures. How did you end up with a picture of Bekah in your photos? Did Tim take the camera with him to OR and only take one picture? That was funny. She looks so much like Ellie in that picture, too.
