Sandy Little Jaybirds


We went back to Newcastle for a few days while Daddy was on the Senior Trip. It has been SO hot outside, so G-Ma let the girls run around naked and play in the sand and water...why not?! Pa always calls them "jaybirds" when they don't have any clothes on. As you can tell by looking at these pictures, this was incredibly fun for them! Madison loved it, until G-Ma got the water hose after her to rinse the sand off. That was TERRIFYING! She is so funny about things like that...if it is out of the ordinary, or something she doesn't understand, she probably isn't going to like it! So, G-Ma carried her into the garage and put her in the sink...now that was pretty fun! (Obviously, I had to crop these pictures a little!)

Looking back, this was the last night we were at Pa & G-Ma's house while Pa was still here with us. I'm so thankful for all of the happy memories we have of summer nights spent like this, with Pa & G-Ma. And I'm also very sad for that chapter to come to an end. Bathtime just won't be the same, without Pa to say, "Ahhhh, Jaybird!!" as Mackenzie and Madison ran down the hall.
