Monkey'n Around Anderson Style: First Days Of Summer

Today begins the first day of our summer. The weather has finally decided to be warm enough to release the kids on the world. I have kept them cooped in the house long enough.

Today I woke up with a plan we were going to do our shopping for the week at our favorite place WAL-Mart, I mean really who can not got here its a one stop shop for the time crunched family. Did I mention the money saving that you can expect to get....

I promised the Kids Tristan 9, Anya 5 and Akasha 21 months that if they could behave at the store we would go to the park. It all went off with out a hitch. They helped gathering the items that we needed with no fighting and yelling. It was amazing who knew how far a little bribery would go. I think that I found my new weapon.

With Mr. Dad working this Saturday I figured why should we be cooped up in the house all day waiting on him it was a great day to get out in the air.

After off loading our Wal-Mart Scores we headed to the park but not before we stop at out favorite spot for slushies Quick Trip.

The kids are a bit upset when we get there and they realize that the wading pools are not running. After a quick explanation of it needing to be warmer for a long period of time before they run them on they calmed down.

We pull in kids are escaping from mom, at which time I give them there direction of which parks they can play at and they head off.

Akasha and I with cousin Cinda head to the grass to relax for a while and snap some pictures.
