Swimming with friends

One warm Saturday morning we got up early and spent some time weeding our backyard. It really could be called our "Giant Sandpit" because there isn't anything but sand in our yard. Well we had lots of weeds. (A year ago Carter thought they were a beautiful garden because each weed was unique by the seeds and flowers it produced. Some weeds grew bell peppers, while others grew miniature bananas, and others grew watermelons. Carter and Chloe would watch for new flowers to bloom and then they would pick a beautiful floral arrangement for me. How could I not be pleased. :) When we weeded last year Carter was disappointed because he thought we were ruining his garden.) So, this particular Saturday morning, it was time to get out and do some much needed weeding. The kids were great help, and we worked together shoveling and removing every single weed in the yard. We only spent about an hour, but we were very hot when we were finished. Our friends "the Johnsons" invited us to go over to their grandparents home to go swimming. It was just the perfect treat after spending the morning in the hot sun. We all had a great time swimming.
