Biking...

Some friends of ours invited Carrie, Paul and I on a bike from town out to their house. Later, we biked back in to town for log rolling, so altogether is was about 14 miles. Add an hour of log rolling and we were pretty tired by the evening!

...And here's Carrie... being Carrie... (I'm still not sure what she was doing...)

Biking through town was hectic with all the tourists and tour buses and traffic, but once we passed through it we could all breath again and the rest of the bike was fine. Paul was great and kept up the whole time.

Water Fight!

Paul turned eleven on Friday. He had a friend over for the day, and someone suggested a water-gun fight outside. It had been pouring down rain all day, but we figured since we would be getting wet anyway during the fight, it wouldn't matter much if it was raining. :) You can't really tell by the pictures, but it is raining pretty hard.

Our water-gun fight turned into more of a water-balloon fight (Definitely more exciting - especially when you have Carrie filling the water balloons. I think she got more wet filling them, than during the fight!) In this picture, John is running from a water balloon that just popped at his heels.

The teams: ...boys...

...against girls...

(somehow the boys look more threatening)

In the end we decided that everybody won.

Our water-balloon fight turned into a water-bucket fight. Here, Emma just got hit with a bucket of water. She was a good sport.

The highlight of the fight: When I got Mom with a water balloon while she was standing on the porch taking pictures. :) She was a good sport too.

Happy Birthday Paul!!!
