Water Fight

There are a few things that can make our day around here- Cousins and warm sunshine. We mean the kind of sunshine that makes it warm enough to play outside with cousins and get into a intense water fight. While their parent we off sunning themselves in Hawaii, we got to spend a bit of extra time with the Cardon girls and Jaren. We love any chance to play with them, especially when Grandma showed up with new water squirters for all of the kids to soak each other with.

Libbie was pretty intense and by far the toughest of the kids when it came to be squirted.
Mia takes no prisoners.
Before long it turned into an intense battle between the biggest kid we have around here... and all of the other kids. It was pretty hilarious to see them trying to distract him so that someone else could spray him, and as soon as I got out the camera they would all run to the porch knowing that Caleb would get in trouble if he got the camera wet. Pretty hilarious.

Jaren was not a fan of getting wet and retreated to Grandma after the first few drops accidentally hit him. Mals just seem to think she would wait out the worst of the action and then enjoy herself by the pool later.

Hmm... no idea why Papa was carrying a shovel in this shot, but it strikes me as funny.
