Captain Chaos: Who Needs Sleep?!

THERE ARE SO MANY EXCITING THINGS TO DO EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!  So I'll just take a quick catnap so we can get back to having fun, okay Mom??

Because who wants to miss freeze pops?

Or trips to the splash pad with friends?

We're dog sitting for a few days!?  Heaven.  Pure Heaven.

If I wasn't awake, you wouldn't have gone to that garage sale and found this ridiculously awesome John Deere front end loader!

But hold on.  Today I slept through my internal alarm clock for my 50 minute nap.  And then I slept through the snooze.  Twice.  Three times?  I don't even know.  But I do know that when I woke up TWO AND A HALF HOURS LATER, you rewarded me with a pool party and a new swing set.

We're going to need a bigger pool.

It's less scary if you take a friend through the sprinkler!

A HUGE thank you to our great neighbors and friends who helped us move the swing set.
Another huge thank you to my wonderful friend Sarah for the donation of the swing set from her backyard!

Grandpa Miller installed the rock wall and slide after he climbed up onto the platform.
There was only one (fun) way to get down!

And they're off!

Happiest kid in the world.

Lauryn's turn to slide!

Ben adds a half-twist.

Oh boy.

Testing out the swing for the first time.

Some more gracefully than others...

Checking out all of the tight spaces

Making Mom and Dad's heart swell :)
