Summer Reading Program

I signed Allary up for the Summer Reading Program at the library this summer. We got her into the same class as her cousin Paige. Last week, they had a sort of kick-off party with games and activities and popsicles. The theme is "Make a Splash at Your Library," so the games all had something to do with water or fish or pirates or something.

Here are the two girls with their pirate eye-patches and their best pirate grimaces. They made those little necklaces which were also supposed to be their pirate names. Allary's was "Wreck Stub Bob" and Paige's was "Blind Wreck Sam."


Here they are tossing bean bags to sink enemy ships... at least I think that's what it was.


Digging for treasure.

After all that, we really did "make a splash." We went over to Trisha's house to play in the wading pool for awhile. I love Allary's face in this next picture... pure enjoyment. :)


Paige kept saying, "Let's sit down and enjoy." This would last for about 3 seconds, followed by more squealing and splashing and giggling.
