Father’s Day at the Pool

Lazy River, Pool, Waterslides, Sand Play Area – loving it all!
Much not photographed because water + camera = bad.

I am attacked by Swimsuit Girl and Wet Boy.

They used their wet to make me wet.

Backyard Tent

This weekend we read books in the tent. We pretended to nap in the tent. We had tickle time in the tent. And we played a lot of “Tent Tag” where getting inside the tent meant you were on base.

Fairy Gardening

Ezri and I put together a rest area for fairies.
It has a bottle cap table with two acorn chairs, a shade house, a soft napping area with petal blankets, a climbing pinecone, shiny geode gazing feature and a pebble path.

She also talked me into another fairy figurine from the garden store to join Snapdragon who has lived by our maple tree for 2 years now.
This friend is reading a book and is named Kittenetta for her love of snuggling cats while she reads.

Snapdragon who has a chipped wing on one side, but still stands proudly guarding the flowers.

Kittenetta who we are just getting to know, but seems lovely.

We planted a snapdragon for Snapdragon the fairy.
We planted a basil plant for Eric.
We planted an English ivy in honor of Aunt Coral.
We planted two patio tomatoes because we are hoping they will be tasty. If we start them early, surely we will get tomatoes this summer, yes?

Dandelion Sniffer

“I would like to plant some dandelions. Not where they’d take over, but maybe in our weed garden.” Yes, there is a patch of our yard we call the weed garden. I have agreed to planting some dandelions there this year.

See that yellow under her nose. She loves how dandelions smell.

We took them home where we now have a small floral arrangement of dandelions brightening our kitchen table.

We also took some “hoo-RAY it’s spring” selfies at the near park.
