i've said it before and i'll say it again, in the country you make your own fun. the kids spent the day at uncle mat and aunty jenny's house today, playing on the home made slip and slide all together with the dogs looking on and occasionally getting in on the action. mat has lived in the same house for as long as i have known him (since i was 4) and he and jen have built themselves a house alongside his childhood home. i can't picture him ever living anywhere other than the country.
the kids all loved getting soaked and sliding around in the bubbles and generally having the time of their lives. honestly, growing up in the country is the best and sometimes i am a little sad that my kids will never have that, but we just need to make sure there are plenty of trips to nannas and aunty jennys to get their country time in.
maddie cracked me up so hard though, when she had had enough of the smaller kids, she climbed up on the top of the monkey bars and sat up there like a dancer, to listen to her ipod. chill out time, girl after my own heart.
