Making A Splash (Country Kids)

As I mentioned in an earlier post this week, all we have done outdoors this week is play with water. With it being so hot and us being able to cool off in our new paddling pool, there has not been a need to go anywhere else. It has been a week for splashing!

However, Thursday night the boys had a sleep over at Granma and Grampy's and before they went to bed they were allowed to try out the water slide - they were so excited they didn't even change into their swimming shorts! And the water was very cold but that did not stop them either!









  When I went to collect the boys the next morning they were in Granma's paddling pool enjoying the warm water as she had filled the pool up with hot water (they were spoilt as Daddy only poured cold water in to our paddling pool lol!). 









And Jenson got to have a swim in our pool back at home when he had it all to himself.



What a week it has been for water play - I hope this hot weather continues for a bit longer allowing us more pool fun! ( We need to get our moneys worth!!)

    Ah such brilliant fun. We have had lots of water fun this week too, it's been an amazing week of weather. I admit to having a sneaky go on their waterslide when they weren't looking!

  6. What fabulous fun shots. Great action. We loved the sprinkler action as children but water restrictions mean they are now banned here. We are fortunate to have a swimming pool but there is still something fun about the sprinkler

  12. Love the look of the water slide! We had one but the water pressure at our house wasn't strong enough unfortunately. Great photos of your boys as usual :)

  13. One of the main reasons I love hot summer weather so much is an excuse to have lots of water play. Looks like your boys have really been enjoying it. x

    That water slide looks great, I didn't know you could get double ones. It's so lovely that it's hot enough for water play in the garden at last, and it looks like yours had a fabulous time.

    Warm water in the paddling pool! They are lucky, I only ever do cold water too. This weather is fantastic and we certainly need to make the most of it. We have been outside all this week too but we don't have a waterslide - that looks like a brilliant idea.

    LOVE that slide. I remember my mum making a makeshift one of these for me when I was younger (from bin bags and washing up liquid if I remember correctly!) #CountryKids
