Outdoorsmen

This past weekend was another one filled with outdoor activities for the gang.  It started Saturday with the St. Pat's parade in Five Points.  It was another year of truly gorgeous weather!  It started out in the 70s and ended up around 80 and sunny by the time we headed home after 2PM. 

We enjoyed the parade with our friends.  This gave Jack and Ewan a chance to run around with their dear friend...and now Sean has to get in on the action.  Ewan is no longer the slowest one, Sean is!  It is so cute watching him try to keep up with his brothers and buddy!

After the parade we all had a yummy pizza lunch together at Za's.  Then it was off to the family fun area at the park.  Jack and Ewan enjoyed some fun rides and Sean was thrilled to ride a little train!  Needless to say after all this fun in the sun they were tired.  Time to head home for naps.

Then Saturday evening we went for a walk and rode bikes.  Ewan can now power up some of the big hills in our neighborhood, something Jack can't even do!  Ewan has stamina and power, Jack goes for speed.

We also worked in the garden (or should I say the boys playing with hoses), flew rc planes, had some yummy meals and just had fun!  That sums up our weekend.  Unfortunately I forgot the camera for the parade so I'm limited to the pics I took with my phone.  But I do have some fun ones from the garden/playing with hoses.....

Sean enjoyed getting wet!  He stood where the two hoses were connected
because it had a spraying leak there.  He would get wet and try to lick
the water falling off the tree!!



Jack filling the bucket with water.  Jack and Ewan had a bucket
brigade going!  They would fill buckets and then "wash" things like
their bikes and the Stick of Butter.



Hard work filling buckets.



"Washing" the Stick of Butter!


Needless to say after this weekend's adventures I have a lot of muddy laundry to wash!!  Ah, boys and their mud and dirt.....
