The Fountain of Youth

On Saturday after Landin's baseball pictures we headed over to the Farmers Market to pick-up some fresh veggies (our garden isn't quite producing yet!). It was the first really hot day we've had in a long while, so when we passed the fountain in the center of town the kids were dying to jump in and cool off. So we let them strip down and join the fun!

Ryder was a bit apprehensive at first, but once he was wet he was totally into it.

Landin's goal was to run across the fountain as fast as he could without getting wet. Inevitably water would pop out of one of the holes in the ground, surprising and soaking him; whereupon Ryder would laugh at him hysterically.
Ryder tried joining Landin in the "run through the water as fast as you can " game; but no surprise - - he slipped and cut his knee open (sigh)... which signaled it was time to head for home.

Even with the cut knee Ryder thought the fountain was a blast; and both boys begged to come again soon.

What a lovely way to spend a Saturday morning!
