I should know by now...

Today we were trimming hedges, mowing, and cleaning when I noticed that I didn't hear Landon playing or asking a million questions. I should know by now that when he's quite and unseen that he's up to something. I should also know that when I hear my husband's laughter and he says 'Get your camera and come here' that something is up.

How he found this much pleasure in an empty storage tote is beyond me...but he did!





I love that look of pure joy on his face!



I wouldn't take anything for all the laughter he brings to my life! Days like today make me stop and remember that no matter what is going on in our lives that have us stressed, worried, upset, or worn out...there's always a place for laughter and fun. Today, that place just happened to be an empty storage tote filled with water!


And, NO I am not going to post the pictures of his daddy and I joining in on the fun. Just know that when we were all completely soaked and worn out from laughing, I felt like a huge load had been lifted off my shoulders. It really was one of the greatest days ever.



OKAY....OKAY...






Maybe I will post ONE picture...








Just one...








...OF HIS DAD!






WHAT? You didn't think I'd do that to MYSELF, did you???



NEVER!


For the record...he's not posing for the camera...he's stuck!

And if you are a member of our church...PLEASE don't feel you have to share with my husband that I posted this picture! He will SO NOT be laughing any more. Just let me have my fun at his expense...Take a moment, LAUGH with me...SMILE at him really big Sunday morning when he speaks to you...RAISE your eyebrows in that funny way at him...shake his hand and act like everything is NORMAL...and KEEP IT TO YOURSELF!


I should know by now that one of YOU are going to tell my husband on me! I should know...I DO KNOW... oh, well, you only live once, right!

That is too funny! Children bring so much joy to a home, and they end up making children out of all of us.

I love this post! Your son is absolutely adorable and I love the sheer glee on his face in those pics. The one of your husband is hilarious too and hey, I can almost hear your church members gossiping about it right now...hee hee, just kidding. :) Glad y'all had such a great time together having fun.
