Can't beat the sunshine

Today was a beautiful day in Lubbock.  Rebecca had to work this morning so I did our normal routine of waking up to go get donuts....

We cleaned the house today while Rebecca worked.  All the kids helped out a ton.  To our surprise Rebecca got off early and we made plans for the afternoon...

I cooked my world famous french dip sandwiches and they didn't go over well with the boys.  The punishment they received was no dessert...

After lunch we headed to the park for some fun in the sun.  It was truly a beautiful day here.  We got to the park about 2:30 and didn't leave until 6pm.  The park was great.  We were the only ones there for a while and the kids had free reign of the entire place.  We laid in the grass while the kids rolled down the grass hill, climbed trees and played on the equipment...

 Amongst all the fun we still found time to put someone in time out.  Cayden decided to not listen to us about climbing one of the slides so we set him down for a while...

But eventually he was back to rolling down the hill with everyone else..

One of the things the boys have been struggling with is keeping the bathroom clean.  They like to play in the water or not clean up after washing their hands.  Well today they made a huge mess and found out that it is easier to clean it up than scrub the floors for 30min with a wash rag.  I hope they learned their lesson....

 The day ended with a great meal by Rebecca. 

Back to school tomorrow....
