No Planning Required
Jenn and I took the girls and her baby down to Kent Station while they were here visiting this weekend and the boys were golfing. The plan was to walk around a bit and then go out to dinner. I remembered my other friend Lisa mentioning some water sculptor/fountains down there so we went to check it out.
As soon as we saw them I knew it was probably not a great idea. We had no extra clothes, no towels, and we still had dinner plans. If you know Kyla, you know that if she even gets one drop of water or one speck of dirt or food on her she has to change her entire outfit. I knew she would not grasp the concept of being 25 minutes away from any other outfits.
I hesitated for a few moments. I didn't know the appropriateness level of letting her run around downtown Kent in only undies, especially with all the crazies out there. Jenn gave her approval and both girls stripped down. Heidi put her feet in a few times and then was done. Kyla on the other hand had a hay day!! Before I knew it she was putting her entire body in the strong gaiser like water spraying strongly out of the ground. She was laughing the entire time and did not want it to end.
I still didn't know what we would do to dry her off. Jenn came up with a small burp cloth. I dried her off as best I could and discretly changed her into her dry clothes. Her hair was a crazy mess but she loved every second. After dinner, Kyla wanted to know if we could go back....I told her we'd go again this week...this time with swimsuits. Well, we went back today and she wanted really nothing to do with it. Go figure. She's a spur of the moment kind of gal.

I love the picture of kyla's hair hanging down in front of her. That's what my hair looks like after I'm done with my bucket wash! :)
