hopped up

Today was a glorious sunshine-y day, full of blue skies and a nice breeze and cicadas droning out their message of hot. It’s hot. Hot today.

So today the kids ran through the sprinkler,
slid on the slip and slide,
kicked the other sprinkler (It’s a big inflatable ball that shoots water in spouts)
watered the garden,
ate popsicles with abandon,
helped me make meatballs,
ate a metric ton of raw carrots (gerrout of that! I’m cooking those!)
chased each other through the field on their bikes in giant swooping loops
made a small city of roadways and parking garages in the dirt of the driveway,
thundered up and down the stairs in search of things to take outside,
threw a frisbee around,
poked each other with dried fettuccine swords,
helped their dad pile wood,

and *still*

*still*

had enough energy to ask if we could practice hitting the tball before showers.

I live with two energized bunnies.

And I just want to know….where can I get me some of that go juice?

    Ok I’m curious- how do you make dried fettuccine swords? :)

    Oh, by that I just mean pieces of dried spaghetti/fettuccine. VERY good for stirring your sibling up. ‘MO-OOOM!’
