a random friday night

don't you just love how just a random night can turn into something so special for your kiddos? We were outside playing and grilling out and were about to go in when Mike and I started chatting about some things while the kids were cleaning up. Next thing I knew, I heard water spraying against the house...something we had just told them not to do. We both lean our heads down the side of the house and Ryan and Kaitlyn are gathered together so quietly....so that we can't hear anything and conspiratorially turning on and off the water...on and off the water. Mike and I quickly pull our heads back out of sight and chuckle. They were being so sweet and so quiet and trying so hard to play and not have us notice...hahaha
Really, what does a little water hurt? So, we let them play "unnoticed" for a while before they finally caught us spying. It was so cute...they were so startled that we were watching them they were not sure whether to say sorry or ask for some help with turning the hose off. We gave in and started spraying them ourselves...which they, of course, thought was hilarious.
What a sweet, unexpected moment. Love nights like these!!


Kaitlyn didn't have a chance...Ryan was SOAKING her!!

He. Loved. It!
