Mr Rogers Ate Lots of Melons

I definitely figured out why Mr Rogers goes through all those sweaters and shoes during each episode. 

He ate a lot of freaking watermelon.

We had a big family barbecue on Brad's side today and I ended up changing the boys' outfits like three times because all of the godforsaken watermelon juice that oozed all over them. 

I  NEED MORE WATERMELON

In celebration of this barbecue, God decided to be nice and we had our first sunny day of our Northwest vacation. All afternoon spent outside in the backyard in gorgeous 60 degree weather. It really is nice being outdoors and not sweating your buttcheeks off. I think the kids liked playing in real soft, silky spongy grass too instead of their usual crappy crabgrass. 


And then Uncle Todd (my brother in law) showed up with his State Trooper car and totally made Calen's day because he got to sit in the front seat and turn on the flashing lights. This was after a nap and an hour of quiet time reading with daddy, because the first time we put him in the patrol car he cried and whined and wanted nothing to do with it, which to us meant he was either about to drop dead, had an identity crisis or was switched with some other three year old, because no Calen of mine would pass up any opportunity to sit in Uncle Todd's car.
