water balloons and bubbles

Its tough to feel like we get any 'quality' time during the week... by the time work is done, the kids home from daycare, and we've managed to get a half decent meal in our bellies - it seems like its bedtime! so we've been making an effort to do a little something fun somehow during the work week. this night here was husband's idea - water balloons!

helping dad fill them up with the water hose ...


wheeling them up in my new wheelbarrow...


Wha!?? what just happened?!?


I'll give it a try!


it didn't bust so mom helped me out on this one...


Then another night we got into the bubbles on the deck just before bed... he wasn't as into bubbles as water balloons but it was chilly so bubbles were warmer ha...

attempting to blow bubbles on my own - never had any luck!


catching them...


So fun!


Some beach pictures to follow and on another note, abram is 16 months old - TODAY! and as you can see above, he does still have all his teeth:) a red sea miracle.

Awwww, what great pics as always! The water balloon and bubbles look like so much fun and such a great idea. You're so right, it's easy to get caught up in the routine of getting home, dinner, bed, etc and not making time - even just 15-20 min - to have some fun together. Good for you!!! Looks like hopefully Aaron is feeling better, too, which is awesome!

That is so sweet! I bought five bags of clearance water balloons last month and am holding them hostage until the right occasion comes up.

But great minds think alike on the balloons! That's for sure. :)
