WE aren't sunburnt!! It rained and never reached 50 degrees here, so everything was moved indoors, even the watergun fight with my mother and Kev. It was so hilarious, my mom is 67 and Kevin is 47 and then my 2 and 3 yo GS, mom had the super soaker and and the other three had little squirt pistols. NOt fair!!


My house was wet everywhere, she held some of us at bay outside and wouldn't let us in!!!! The 2 yo was sitting on the chair next to her!!

I said something about how she would've gotten pissed if people had done that in her house, she said yeah but it wasn't my house!!! I had friends over that have known my mom for ages that wer just blown away that she was doing this, we laughed so hard and all had wet clothing.

We had a ball and way to much food, but I love to cook so all is good!!!

OK Day, you rock as one of the coolest daughters and grandmothers to let them turn your house into a water gun fight.

Our weather could not have been better. Last week was bad, and today is rain, but the weekend was the best in years.

You will always have memories of watching that water gun fight, and you can't help but smile thinking about it.


It was a marriage that never really started.

We had a great weekend...got alot of spring cleaning done and spent yesterday with family. Weather was cool Friday and Saturday but warmed up Sunday and Monday.

Sounds like fun with the water guns. Every once in a while I shock my kids with the kitchen sink sprayer as they walk by me. A little water never hurts anything....well at least not too much.

It sure was....and it wasn't long enough. Thankfully, I have gotten past crying every time my time w/ The Diplomat is over.

No I didn't!

I like the way it was broken down easier to read then huge paragraphs!

So how many times do you get to see the diplomat? How did you meet that it is a LDR? I never go to the Kingdom so am not familiar!!
