Memorial Day fun @ the splash pad

Oh these pictures are getting me very excited for warm weather as I'm typing this up in the middle of winter :(

On Memorial Day, we decided to go to a splash pad after visiting the cemetery for Spence's grandparents.  

This cemetery is really beautiful with gorgeous rivers and huge trees.

Putting flowers on Bonnie's parents graves and looking at family pictures as well.

We had a fun time talking with the kids about their ancestors.

First we started with a yummy picnic at the splash pad and then cooled off in the water.

It was a beautiful afternoon!

"Brrr...that's cold mama!"

This kid loves the water but does not like being cold!

Such a cute boy!

Watch these boys try to get water in their cups.  Love it!

Good work Logan!

Rio on the other hand just loves to play and get wet.

Love my Jax.  He is such a fun kid and loves playing!

He and Blake are my kiddos that get cold pretty fast so we spent some time snuggling too!

Papa Ranger and Grandma joined us as well.

Logan decided to take a  break and warm up on the metal bench - cozy!

We love this park because they can play in the water and then at the park too.

It's such a fun place.

I had to join in the water fun too - the kids love it when I can play and run through the water with them.  I couldn't pass it up!

Jax and Logan totally getting water blasted and loving it.

Later that afternoon, we decided to grab a slushee/snow cone at our favorite place.

Yum, Yum and lots of juice mouth stains too.

Couldn't have been more fun.

Love my family so much and I'm so grateful for Spence's job that allows him to take these days off to be with us.  It is the highlight of the kids day when  daddy gets to stay home and be with them.

I'm so grateful for our kids and for Spencer.
