Summer Sweets

We spent much of the afternoon outside today since the weather was so nice and mild. I think we hit the mid 80's, much cooler than it was last week. The kids played hard, so they needed a snack after a while. Since I had scrubbed the kitchen and bathroom while they were outside, I needed a break too! I couldn't resist grabbing the camera for some sweet, sticky pictures.


Ella just loves her watermelon! She ate about 3 pieces, all the way down to the rind.

Yummo!

Emma, posing for a sweet picture. She loves to have her picture taken!



Ella, enjoying the sunshine and her sweet treat. She's standing next to the ever-popular climing tree in our backyard. The kids can't keep themselves out of it!

Tonight promises to be a treat for me and Todd too, since we've got a babysitter coming and we get to go out for once! Seriously, I think Valentine's Day was our last date, so this is a long time coming!

I have an Ella, too! My youngest of 5. Actually she is Elliana, but we call her Ella. I am enjoying reading your blog and getting to know you!
