The splash park





I took two days off from work for a long, four-day weekend to head to my parents' with the boys. My mom had back surgery in early June (while I was at the World Pork Expo in Des Moines), and I really wanted to give her and dad a chance to see the boys. Plus, I missed my mommy! :)

Mom has done remarkably well! But, she also needed quite a bit of rest, as you can imagine, after the surgery. That left me with finding creative ways to keep the boys happy.

My wonderful cousin, Lisa, called me one afternoon and asked if I'd like to meet up with her and her three kids -- Maddie, Isaac and baby Owen -- at the free community splash park. How fun! The kids had a blast, and it was a way for me to catch up with my cousin. (Between bouts of chasing kids. Ha!) Unfortunately, we didn't get a shot of the kids together. Maybe next time!

Thanks, Lisa, for a fun afternoon!!
