We took off to a river close by today for a little fun. We've had no other big plans for Memorial Day weekend so the river it was! My dad was cremated so I can go and decorate his grave, there's times that I really wish I had that opportunity.
It was a gorgeous day and the river was a perfect place to go today, not crowded and close to home. I had no intentions of getting wet :) I did want to just wade in the water a bit and before I knew it the sand/rocks/slush underneath me gave way and down Little Man and I went! I did keep him above water though! He didn't even cry! I was stuck on my knees keeping him out of the water and they took a beating lol. They don't look too bad but man they hurt!
Daddy saved Little Man from the icy water :)
The boys had a blast swimming all over the icy water, Addy was happy as a clam on the sidelines throwing rocks into the water. If she has something to throw, she's a happy girl. After a couple of hours Daddy finally convinced her to at least sit in the water with him. She was filthy, it was so cute :) HOWEVER!!! When I got her up and out of the water a LEECH fell off of her! Freaked me out a bit but she seemed fine. I changed her when we got to the car and her swim diaper was full of blood! I was sure she was goingng to have a huge bite but she doesn't. There's definitely a hole where it attached to her but fortunately it's no longer bleeding and the doctor on call assures us that's there's no need to be concerned if the bleeding doesn't come back. This girl is such a trooper!
It was a nice day with the majority of my fam (Jarika is working today in Joplin), now we are all bathed and relaxing, I'm soo happy it's summer!
